Not sure whether it's relevant to this thread, but I'd suggest that the HRT car would have at least 680HP.

Active Automotives GTS is pulling 570rwhp so is that around 700hp at the engine ??Quote:

More like 750+
10.2-10.5 last time I seen them at the drag strip.
No idea on the COTF, those times where pre COTF.

Yeah I dunno Pickles, I know a guy (Not personally, my uncle moves drag cars/engines around for them and he builds my kart engines) who builds engines for a few teams and whilst he wouldn't give exact figures away he specifically said it was closer to 600 than 700. He also telling me about tolerances for the engines as far as HP and torque curves etc and what they have to be. He was telling my how much he has to defend the performance of the engines when a particular car may be down 5kp/h down Conrod and that pointing the finger at the driver for not getting a clean run out of Forrest Elbow was hurting him more than the engines performance... :lol:
At a private drag day at the Plex on Sunday !!Quote:

The only one I can find, it is 10.82, I can remember them going quicker. They don't exactly get out of the hole real quick, 60ft like me.

Embedded for you
I thought they were all around the high 10's low 11's, even the Brock era VC/K's.
Those rev limites seemed suspiciously like there werent there on that run that would explain the 10s 1/4 times lol Instead of 7500rpm maybe 8500Quote:
