In Tucson. All black. Not impressed by the look of the narrow body up front and the wide body in the rear. He still had the temporary tags on the car. I don’t like discussing finances. But assuming I could buy a car between 100-200k it would not be the 170.

Street racing is illegal. I have 100 horsepower on him. He would be lucky to run 9.5 at 5000 feet.

The only one I would consider would be the caddy. Not as fast. But a good road car for a sedan. If a challenger the redeye wide body. Those are getting above 100 with all the bells and whistles.

Don’t know about that. On the street the best that car does is in the 3s. The demon 170 can’t launch. At the track no contest. From start to finish I’m ahead. The thing I am scared about is my wife sitting next to me. No man would want her wrath even with a quarter of the go peddle pushed down.

What’s the point in that though if street racing is illegal? 🤔

You said you’re not going to run it fast on the street so what’s the point of what it does on the street?

Neither do I, but you’re saying you’d go with a black wing over a 170 because it’s quicker on the street, just trying to understand

I actually said it is slower. But a better road car. Have some coffee and wake up. I have better things to do than respond to your nonsense.

With a 9.60 ET ur not beating ANY Demon 170 on ANY surface bro..... Like I said the the 170 hooks up better. Maybe from a roll it would be closer but from a dig ud get smashed! The suspension and launch technology is light years ahead of ur 16 HC.

Track elevation is 3075 at starting line in Vail. Barometric pressure is in the low 29s. Temperature is in the 90s. Humidity is high due to monsoons. DA is not static elevation. The DA in Tucson is 4000-8000 depending on the time of the year and the weather. We had a few Demons run at our track with the high-performance computer in their car. Drag Packs installed. Stock cars. Best they did were low 10s when Dodge and Leah P. driving for them got about a 9.7. DA does matter. Tucson downtown is about 2500 feet. I live near the Biosphere. Elevation there is 4000. Tucson is not flat.
