If I had 500 pounds out of my car id be mid 8s easy
You forget, the stick has a big launch advantage, I'm coming out at 2500 vs 6k, way better 60 opportunity
I think I/we have some experience in stick shift racing as you may know and in this case I have to disagree in making this chassis work with this power and stick. We could never get the 05 car to work with the stick to go quicker than a 9.05 I believe but put the TH400 in and the 60's dropped and so did the et's by a bunch.
In other set ups I would agree
