Shane ya'll need to be crowned the king of chit talkers, how many years have ya'll said you were going to be the ones to put down the #? :biggrin: LOL

Why go south when you only need 3 races for the points. We have 4 races up here. All but one are within 3 hours. The furthest one for me is in my state (Indiana) too. Figure that one out lol.

They use your best 3 races to calculate your points,you could come south and do better and come out higher in the points.

You notice I said "IF" this time. I learned my lesson...:wink:

It's just a matter of time. It should have been done last year. Both Dick and Don had the hp, just a couple of details stopped them. Hopefully this year will be the year.
If I remember correctly, you were just waiting on a turbo for your TSM car. Did you guys get one? Any testing/times? I would love to see another heavy hitter at Reynolds. I can think of 5-6 cars with 9.20's potential.

We "plan" on being there. Waiting on some suspension parts from Paul to go ahead and finish car... Yes turbo is handled, I am sassified:biggrin: Trying to do 2,3 cars at time is tough on a brothers pocket

I agree the power is there, no dought... You know I have been telling you for at least 3 years 8.99 was coming... It is and I know your camp has a several cars capable. I imagine there is at least one car from MI that can do it... Just has not been done yet

You have to show up to a legal event for it to count. Heck, I went 8's with Dick's TSM car a couple years ago. Since there wasn't any tech, we were 100% TSM legal :tongue:

Hopefully, you guys can get one of your cars together and can bring it to Reynolds.

How much whp is required to run a 8.99 in TSM trim at 3550 pounds?

Depends on how efficient the car is....

A car that 60s a 1.27 would require less HP to run an 8.99 than a car that 60s 1.37...

Just sayin.

 

[HighPSI]

How much whp is required to run a 8.99 in TSM trim at 3550 pounds?

Hopefully under 805 Dynojet hp

Last year, I calculated that Dick Kereny and Don Cruz were making 926 hp on their 9.0 / 150mph passes

Photoshop can

do "wonders" for a dyno sheet!!

 

[HighPSI]

Haha! Or I could have just printed a pull from another car. I was over 1200hp with another well know V6 Buick car. I have also maxed the dyno with some turbo V8 stuff.

How long are 109 blocks going to hold together at those power numbers?

The calculator says 963 average rwhp.

I think Don passed on a great chance to put down the number at Cecil - he spent the weekend tuning and making 100-300 foot passes, then since he was the only TSM car there got a bye in the "finals" where he could have let it out on a great air day on a hooking track in front of some full stands, and instead he idled down the track. Went to Reynolds and didn't quite get it.

 

[ttypewhite]

Something does not add up V6Racer said the same motor made 664rwhp and ran low nines however others say it takes over 900rwhp to run 8.90's. Is there something i am missing?????

 

[turbocliff]

The calculator says 963 average rwhp.

The calculator is wrong, or meant 963 crank hp.

I know of several 3550lb+ cars that make LESS than 960 at the tire and run bottom 8s.
