there is no poll?
but I dunno hack may have you as the power of nitrous is instant, but if he doesn't have a traction control/gear skip setup, you may have him beat off the line and should be able to hold him off

edit, ahhh there the poll

I say mikes car wins....not only cause we did the build but looking at how the car performed on the dyno... it has a real strong powerband... more so than what i would think would come from a nitrous car...could be wrong but... my vote is for mike. plus come....who can knock mikes "slobalt" hahah ah i love it.

You guys DO realize he has the same amount of whp as a stock supercharged at best.

Based on that, what is the best time a stock SS has put down in the 1/4?

Now face that up against an automatic with slightly more whp, and add into the equation that regardless I have perfect shifts and launches everytime =P
