Well, I'm sure it wouldn't be anywhere near 440hp.

It's not even that quick for I/SA.

I looked through some old qualifying sheets...... ran 11.804, qualified #103(.494 under).

Another better I/SA car was there that same day running 11.30's.

My friend was there with his Firebird, qualified #22, 1.03 under.

Invariably, a common theme with these threads is how hard it is to make a car run quick in nhra Stock legal trim(at least when compared to the typical street strip or mild bracket build)....... and yet at many events throughout the country, all season long, there will often be fields of over 100 cars doing what apparently is nearly impossible.

IMO, instead of looking at the way those cars run and thinking it's magic, it's better to look at them as a lesson on what's important in terms of getting a good ET, and seeing if you can apply some of that to your program.
