That's great to know. My car is on the PZero's as well and I will be upgrading to the PSS (particularly for track events)...but currently can't justify it as my car can barely break traction

Got any 60-130 times yet? If not, what do you expect them to be?

Not yet as it literally was just finished last week. Car still has only 1,700 miles. I'll be getting them at the event I guess

By the way I have something in mind for a good place to do 60-130 times in December/January...negative DA's and a wide open empty road...we can discuss at SS

In the end it's pretty much HP to weight ratio that will determine the winner...with a couple other lesser variables such as transmission and driver skill.

My guess is that we've all dyno'd and have an SAE wheel HP number and we generally know the weight of our cars plus us in them. We should do a quick calc and see what we are and then compare that to the race results.

Mine is about 6.8: 3,600 lb car + 185 lb driver = 3,785/555 RWHP SAE.

I'm at about 7.3: 4,048 lb car + 185 lb driver = 4,233/583 RWHP SAE.

So far, the expected finish results are:
1) Longboarder (6.8)
2) Sick335 (7.1)
3) Xtyper (7.3)

Shoot, I'm last!!!
