8.40 at 175 with much slower half track numbers.
My understanding is it has a mendeola trans,
and 2850cc motor,
but has to carry over 2000lbs of weight due to the large engine capacity.(class rules)

Ignorant question, but is the weight for class related to CC's and forced induction multipliers or some other factors also?

I think in the "pro mod" PRA class they use lbs of weight per cubic inch
and then there are weight penalties for EFI and intercooling,
of which the Laufers car has both I think.

Apparently it is a 10"x28" tyre.
the engine uses a 78 stroke with 4.010" bore=101.85mm.
This is a 2542cc engine with over 50psi boost, and makes about 1000hp.
Car weighs a minimum of 2008lbs to be cass legal,
but owner(Kris) says it is closer to 2100lbs to keep the nose down.
I get 900hp at 2008lbs and 940 at 2100lbs
Either way, it IS the "Fastest Focker around"

Turbos are great, but you can keep your wizzers.
I think people know me well enough to know, that if i went with any artificial aspiration,
it would be a little different to the norm.
