Reaction time 2.0+? Maybe he needs to add an alarm clock to wake him up when the light goes green!

I'll be my life that the 2.0+ RT is to allow for turbo spool. That's a small motor and would need as sec to get the turbo going. It's a rather common practice of turbo cars to sit at the line for a sec after the light goes green to allow for this.

Look at it this way - you'd need to be below 12 to beat him head-to-head, even with his R/T ... and I don't know too many people in FBE pushing 450+ HP, let alone out of a 2 liter engine ...

I had to laugh at a caption in this month's Street Machine.
It said "This very clean Toyota Supra didn't have the usual bodykit fitted"
Shame it was a Mitsubishi Starion then....

At 450 hp, I couldn't help but put that in My Favorites and sign his guest book. Maybe we should invite him to join fbe!!!

Doesnt matter if he is running a fusion reactor or a turbo. To stage a turbo is nothing more than lighting the first light, spool up and push into the stage beam. Go to a real race event and you'll see them doing it. I saw pro 5.0 cars stage all day last week, with .450 lights or better.
Low 12's btw Pfffffttttt!
Power to litre is BS, Power to lb is where its at.

Now imagine what he could have run if he knew how to drive. Stevie Wonder could have gotten a better reaction time... Good thing he's driving Jap-crap. If he had good all American torque from a big-block, he'd be in the wall with a quickness...
