Re: Super Gas MPH
Well It may be a little different with a full bodied car and of course it will also vary with were you use the throttle stop but as a point of comparison my 540/900 hp S/C dragster ran 7.70@170 off the stop and 8.90@166 on the stop so I lose about 4 mph (stop on at .5 off at 1.8-2.0 sec.)
Since your car is more powerful but heavier I don't know if my experience is a reliable indicator of what to expect.
p.s. If I could afford one I would have a 632 with big chief heads and run 8.90's in the low 180's There are a couple of advantages in doing so. First you keep you opponent in sight which makes it easier to gauge the closing rate and stripe. Second since they run harder in the last half they run much softer and more consistent in the first half.
