are you joking?

Azenis to drag race a 400-450whp car?

uh, no.

450whp on an S2000 should be good for mid 11s and easily trapping mid 120s. Your traps aren't indicative of that kind of power, IMO, more along the lines of 375whp or so.

yeah i was gonna say with 450 whp you should be getting better than 12.1.

i guess those 40 mph winds really effect you.

I think he has 40mph headwind in the post. That makes for some major loss in et's and mph.

It was the first time out with the car and it didn't handle. I got one goodish run with a 1.78 60'. I see guys putting down 1.5+ 60'. If I can get them and a nice day I should get in the 11's. Remember it's winter weather. I want to get out at the end of the month, but I'm not risking it if the track isn't good. One question? If the diff broke would I just loose drive or could it put power to just one wheel? It swerved so violently from the back could it have been the diff letting go? I've not had chance to inspect as i've been away.

That violent swing is the nature of the S2000 beast.

Those are some outstanding 60s.

and thats before the headwind really counts as much being that the force is exponential. GL on fixing the car up... wet + s2000 =

...especially when it comes to extra hp.
