this is an actual car. not "what if i build this".. let me know what ya'll think:
DC2:
2880lbs with driver
353whp/298fpt on N2O
assuming LS tranny with no LSD.
the guy will be test/tuning this month and i want so get some ideas of what he can run. his tuner tells him with a PERFECT run he could get a 11.6 @ 119 out of it, but he's looking for a low 12 (which should be no problem).
11.6 sounds possible with the power... not sure about the weight though.
any guesses?

elevation of track

we'll just say elevation of: 635' (pretty much sea level)
suspension = coil-overs. that's 'bout it
24" slicks or will be running 225/15 BFGs.

You have all the power on your side but that weight is pretty damn heavy close to 3000lbs, is probably going to hurt you alot.

thanks for an actual answer, bro!!
this guys is sort of a "nemisis". his car was tuned by a guy that doesn't like me or my group of friends too much (long story). anyway, i'm trying to get an IDEA of what he should run or what others here run with the same power/weight, etc. the guy is actually pretty cool, so we'll be pulling for him. i just want an idea of what is typical for his setup.
i know he won't run 11.6, 'cause NONE of us ever have a PERFECT run. i'm just looking for a ball park figure.
i'm thinking 12.4-12.6ish..?

are B20 sleeves not as good as other B-series sleeves? he IS squeezing A LOT.

i'm figuring the same time. "kaj" is an old nickname from back in the day (back when i started getting on the 'net). i still use it 'cause i have email addresses with the name, etc

the b20 is a simese sleeve they are for nortorious for cracking at high hp levels.how much is he"how big of a shot is your friend running".
i have sprayed a 175
shot wet on a ls vtec w/oem parts
.the car is a tract car.but if you get the mixture right
anything is possbile
.by the way that set up ran 7.03 @103 mph w/ 1.5 60 ft'
.26x10x15 launching @ 5k anything above that and she breaks axles.
the only way to see what the car will run,is to take it to the tract
.my guess is high 12's
but who knows.but good luck with the set up.

you ran 7.03@103? wow hahaha.
this guy is squeezing more than 200. just look at his dyno numbers! his car has held up so far.
i know to wait and see how it does at the track, but i'm trying to get opinions of what everyone here thinks it will do BEFORE he goes.
