David got his 2500 pound Noble M400 back with a dyno sheet from the engine builder showing 630rwhp. The last time I raced him he had only 500 rwhp and from 30 mph I held him off till he walked by me when I was at 115. So... with him up by 130 more rwhp I expected a major rape. Didn't happen. We went from 30, I opened a 1 car lead and never lost it. I lifted at 130 with him still a car back.:headbang:

He's gonna have his tuner look at it, he should have left me for dead.

Was this at the meet on Saturday morning? I was gonna show up but had to take care of an oil pan leak on the car, what do you say we run them this saturday Wayne?
No, this was setup by the troublemaker Jude (V12TT), :playa:

In truth, it was to see how David's car was REALLY running because we had run together before. No grudge, just for fun.

I'm always game to some fun runs, but (excuses coming) we all smelled my clutch slipping (WOT top of third) on the run with the Noble, it's going, going, soon gone. I have an upgraded clutch on order. I'm in, just bring a tow rope, I may need it.

holy crap I just realized how light that car is.. now I'm confused, that thing should be damn near the fastest car on the road making 630hp at the wheels and weighing in at 2500 pounds. Something must be wrong or your z06 is just ridiculously fast..

this coming from a guy that runs 10.0s trapping over 135 consistently in a car that weighs around 2600 pounds making 430rwhp

im sure that number he posted was a corrected number and yours is a actual but still none the less it should roll out damn good if it could get the power down

must be spinning the shit out of those tires!
He wasn't spinning. He was on Toyo R888 R compound race tires, they were hooking up good. The only answer that fits is that it isn't making the power he was told. I was told the builder took it to the dragstrip before shipping it here and it ran an 11.0 in the high 130's, 137 or so.
