who's the fastest/most powerful auto?

just curious..............

i know vince had it when he was stage 2 rrm, and he would be difficult to beat (he had what, 223 hp, 22x torque?), but who is king of autos now? would it be nextgen w/ his stage 2 sds (19x hp/ 17x torque)? or someone else?


i'm scheming

start as an N/A then see from there if u can afford to upgrade to turbo. S/C limits your options

whaaaaat? how so? i viewed it as the opposite, as you can run up to 20 psi with ripps sds kit, just gotta upgrade springs, rods and pistons and feed her a mad amount of fuel

well then build up the SDS from ripp..it would be good, but if you dont live around them then its kinda hard to be a test dummy from so far away....its good for nextgen cus he can drive in if he has problems, not good if you dont have either shop aroound you to help you out...

alright vince, i'll try to present a challenge, i just need someone to hold my hand along the way

yeah, i'm kinda stuck in between scylla charybdis being in the dead center of the country, that is why its a toss up or possibly even a custom kit and get it locally tuned

like i said, tranny first, as i think that will provide insurance and give me somewhat of an edge

what supporting mods besides stage2 did you have? tb? im? HFC?
