My Grand Prix trapped 160 in the mid day heat in August, and did so about 100hp short of where it has been turned up to on the dyno. I'd put it at 165 mph traps on an optimum run. However, it's not like it matters, because I would have to turn it down to a 140mph car before I could do much of anything on the street starting out around 80mph.
Ryan's LSJ Cobalt should trap around 140 next time out, and he would most likely have to turn it down on the street as well.

As I heard the story, a guy with a Cobra tried to call out ZZP and when Ryan went looking for him, he didn't show up. Friends calling him and all that. It's not like ZZP went around dick swinging, the Rustang came looking for a match.
Now I'm hearing about 50 rules we have to apply by. Can't bring our 8 sec GP? Not sure why, it's only 6 cylinders against a blown nitrous 8 cyl RWD Mustang? Ok, then we can't run Ryan's LSJ? WTF? If we have to run the LNF which is a stock car with our turbo upgrade, then can we make the Cobra run a stock blower, stock injectors, no nitrous, pump gas?

You should read before you post. I WANT to run all your cars. I do NOT expect to beat all of them.

Dude, we have like 10 cars! We're going to bring out ALL of them?
I thought this was a Ryan vs. a Mustang guy talking smack about Cobalts deal?
And besides that, if you don't expect to win then why should we bother to show up? If that was the case, we'd have to waste our gas on every slow car in the country. You know? Normally someone calling you out has something to be worthy of the effort.

If Ryan wanted to run me why are you even in here stirring the pot before you even read? You came in here saying I called him out which I never did. You accused me of saying you couldn't bring certain cars out, which I never did.
I see where this reputation of being an ******* comes from about you Zoomer.
Edit: You guys can bring whatever cars out you want to run me with and I'll run them. It's all for fun as far as I'm concerned.

It'll still handle a cute little mustang right?
that always spices things up.
