Some quick math can give you an idea on your competitors capabilities. The Dodge Stealth Twin Turbo made 300hp, but they weighed in at over 4000lbs. They are extremely heavy and were good for high 13's from the factory when launched well. To launch the car well it must be revved and dumped at redline to spool the turbo's. If the turbo's are not spooled, forget about it. It's such a tank the car will pull a crappy 60ft time. If launched properly they can pull 1.6's.

That is where the true ability of the car comes in. Even with a couple minor mods it will be hard to get that car to run with you. If he doesn't launch well, even with 100hp more than stock it would be close due to excessive drivetrain power loss related to the AWD system.

Blizzak's are crappy, and you know it, lol!
