Oh no you didn't Greg. AHAHAHA

Better get him out of the hole, or his big azz will either pass you, or pace you.

345 vs. 230 can change REAL quick depending on the config. Recently someone dynoed a 4wd auto hemi Ram and came up with 260HP on the rear wheels. Compare that to a 2WD 4.7 w/ a 5 speed. And it becomes 260 vs. 200. Weight diff of 6000 vs. 4000LBs makes it 23LB/HP vs. 20LB/HP.

I know it's not a fair comparison, but it shows that the configuration can make a huge difference.

Well we ran last night and were pretty much even.I jumped him off the line and he caught up and stayed neck and neck until my wonderful 98 mph limiter hit.I was happy with the results.
