...and bingo was his name-o.
drag radials, they will probably trap very close. I think you meant slicks. And it also depends on a lot of things.

the reason i asked for quarter mile times is because area has posted in the war stories
a couple of times, and he is always winning his races. plus alot of people say that his car is very fast. just curious what it ran, that's all.

I would just like to point out that in the thread next to this one Elite didn't pull very hard on what sounded like a mostly Cobra. Now in turn area only puts a car or so on him...

Also I would like to say someone mentioned different tunes/power levels and what not, forced induction cars can DD at one power level then race at another. Maybe area was on 93 octane with a larger pulley then switches tunes, pulley's, and runs E85, meth ect for race time? Someone who works on their car alot can change things fairly easy when done enough (quick change of a pulley, push a few buttons and load a new tune then hit the gas station for E85). I knew a tech that could change a clutch in a old toyota tacoma in under 50 minutes, if you do it enough it is easy; just saying...

Good runs guys!

I trap 120 verified with 26" slicks. @ around 400 hp. I can see how with street tires and simmilar power he could see few more mph. Especially seeing my car is a 3150# pig.

I agree with you 100 percent, but don't say the car traps well into the 120's on your DD tune because it don't. Because it makes the other car seem alot faster.

i heard he rented out the track and had them change around the timing system to produce uber high trap speeds.

just the word on the street though.

But it wasn't modded with a pulley either, maybe a catback, intake and tune at best. You would hear the pulley at highway speeds with the window down when he gets on it from the other car. Most owners don't waste time on a tune with out a pulley, what are the mods on that car if you know? Nothing sounds much more then close to stock...

I guess I don't even own a lsj anymore. I'm a nuthigger but your the one always talking about the man. Areas number isn't magic by dealing with over the years he was able to help me make the same number as him I quit at 373. Moral of the story if he's telling the truth about hid numbers on the eweb it shouldn't matter

Ok you don't get it do you. There are people in here saying he is at 375 whp and he says he traps deep 120's. Those two things don't match up in a cobalt. If he has more power he should just say what it puts down.
