Originally posted by dutchie:I, and anyone else who knows basic math, can tell you though, if a turbod CSVT runs a 13.2, a NA contour would need pretty close to the hp of the turbod car to make a time of 13.4.
Not necessarily.. Ive seen a 1400HP Viper that couldn't get into the 10's.. While I've seen pleanty of 500HP cars running high 10's.. The 1400HP Viper, like Burrita's Contour both have a heck of a time catching traction.. Greg also had drag radials the day he ran the 13.47.. He's also removed/transferred a lot of weight, while Burrita has(from what I can imagine) only added weight with all of the extra turbo/intercooler hardware.. Then you factor in the driver.. I can imagine Greg can row through the gears pretty well, proving excellent #'s everytime at the track.. So basically, these #'s aren't too far fetched, and with a good driver and some traction, a turbo SVT should easily be in the 12's..
