Forget N/A or any of that BS, just make it a straight checkbook race. Whatever dollar amount '68cuda416 spent on his engine vs that same amount in a Gen III. Now that's fair.
Of course he won't agree, because you can buy a Gen III off the shelf that will beat his 416 and still have a ton of money left over. It's almost like he doesn't make the best decisions...
No, you threw out 10 miles because you usually put your car on a trailer to go further than that.
You can do 10 street miles in an F1 car, but I wouldn't say that makes it streetable.
Now, 100 miles in a go and you might have an argument. Ever driven your car 100 miles at once?
Lol. Can't even build a NHRA legal car. Too much money for you? Or too complicated?
There's literally no point in having a car like that and not being NHRA legal. Unless it's so you can make excuses about it when people call you out.
He claims it has run a 5.78 in the 1/8th but has added power since then. Apparently he doesn't realize you can see all of his old posts.
And of course it's never run in the 1/4, too fast and scary. Might break something.
Translation- I won't even tow my car that far, might get damaged.
Or maybe it's because you know you won't pass tech anywhere but your home track?
Wait, are those the only circumstances you think people drive their Mopars under?
That's like cartoon caricature stuff! I mean how ridiculous are you? Lots of people don't smoke. A real hunter wouldn't take a Mopar deer hunting because there's no good place to tie down a deer and real deer hunters actually plan on bringing something home. Most intelligent people try to avoid pot holes, but you know, they don't trailer their cars around because of them. Truck pull? Pretty sure you use trucks for that. Might be fun though if you had the ground clearance!
But yeah clearly that's what people who actually drive their Mopars do, because you have to marginalize it to make yourself seem normal.
Kinda like you just stay up at night, polishing your car with a cotton diaper and say "my precious" over and over again? View attachment 1716005982
I don't have a 416 so you lost me there, I didn't keep track of what I spent and that makes no sense what you suggested and since nobody else in the world does that kind of race either they agree with me, are you now making the rules for my open invitation race with the mile criteria? The car originally was legal with the 8 pt roll bar it has but has since migrated into something faster and albeit I do want more cage for my safety I have another car that has a 8.50 cage in it if I wanted to run legal 1/4 mile and since 99% of the tracks localish to me are 1/8th mile I have always asked in advance and they all said I was fine to run there so no worrying about me being DQ'd on a 1/8th mile track, It was just me picturing you in my head along with the 3 other guys on here that agree with you of how you treat and drive your car.......my apologizes if I am mistaken.
