Not what you think. Basically, it's build up a muscle car engine or other road car engine and then we drag them at Indy. No tuning etc. Stock tires. No aids. Builds must be mild builds, as close as you can get to 450hp without going over. Power limiting is prohibited. No weight reduction.

Think of it as you were building a car in real life.

Other road cars are legal but cannot exeed 450hp. Pick awkward cars, something fun so this can be really interesting. Who doesn't want to see a Fiat 500 beat a Camaro in a drag race?

Car like M3's/M5's, Skylines etc. You have to be smart about it though, some builds will yeild only high end rpm power and getting off the line slow could cost you the race. Hp is great, but torque wins races.

I have a stock Cuda, can I use that?
 
Yup. Just tune the power up to as close as you can to 450.
 
No, because power has to be less than 450hp stock. That also depends on what GT-R you plan on using, there are a lot of them. If power is less that 450hp stock, than yes.
 
O.O I see that 4WD is allowed lol, I realized that a Cuda may start off a bit slow haha
 
I'd prefer cars be FR layout.

Swara if you know what you are doing you can get that Cuda to smoke most competition.

When do you guys want to run this?

Okay Cuda it is. :sly:

Could we do this competition in the beginning of June?
 
I kinda wanted to do it soon to run some replicas against stock muscle and tuned road. Besides we've got to worry about Daytona and Nurb.
 
Comforts or sport cuz some cars sports are its stock tires

And build up on stock drivetrain?

Tires don't matter as long as they aren't changed from when the car was bought.

Drivetrain stays the way it was before. In other words, don't touch anything but giving it power.

So we use stock trans then... 4 gears FTW :D
 
So what im understanding is we can only touch like hp parts and our hp cant go over 450 and we also cant touch weight or anything else is that correct.

If one car comes with comfort tires stock & another is sports stock, you can easily see who will win this comp. We need to set a tire to use like comfort soft or sport hard.

Yes.

Not nessecarily. There is also the weight factor and many other factors. Shoft shifting is not allowed either, so you may use automatic if you are feeling lazy.

I want in on this lol

The more the merrier.
 
This sounds fun. Could I suggest someone uses the 440r/t? Favourite muscle by far.. But I reckon the spyker c8 will be a devil..
 
It has to be road legal with stock HP under 450. You may tune your car to 450 hp but it must not go over. If it goes over and has to be power limited to 450, it will be illegal to use.
 
Ok so its gotta be a muscle car and FR. 450HP max... As shake said when need a tire pick. Either comforts or sport.
 
I guess I will join too. Just hp upgrades right? Also we should use sports medium.
