I put 1 full car length on him and semi held that position with us inching back and forth between shifts . . ran up to about 105 ish before we had to brake. He started in 3rd, but when he hit it he claims it downshifted again putting it right at redline in 2nd and then it had to shift again which is probably why I gained the full car length. . . . maybe. Ran him from a stop too, no contest. Launched on him perfectly, spinning a 4 before slingshotting out. He said it was THE best launch he had ever seen from an AWD 3/S. From a roll, we seem to be pretty evenly matched. Sweet truck. His mods:
6lb lower
ported stock Eaton supercharger
EEC reflash
Mac intake
Flowmaster cat back
We did some cruising at Streets, B&I ( dead ), the Burger King on Roselle Road ( bunch of Camaros and STI's / WRX's hanging out, none of them wanted any ) and later we all went to a location where the Lightning ran a new S/C Mercedes Benz E55 from a stop. The Benz slept on the launch and the Lightning had him by a full car length at the end of the approximate 1/4 mi with the Benz coming on . . real good race. I believe those S/C'd E55's trap in the 114 range when properly driven.
A modified 2003 Porsche GT2 with 600+/600+ at the wheels (!) ran a modified Viper GTS twice ( whp unknown exactly, but believed to be 500+/550+ ) and at the 1000 ft point the Porsche was ahead by a fender both times but would then steadily pull away with authority. 2+ cars at the end and pulling. Insane car.
After that, I had wanted to run the E55 Benz but it started to lightly rain so we decided to call it a night.
