208 mph from a 'cuda??!! Daaaammmnnn!

[Brian Hudson]

badass! :eek:

[ND4SPD]

That's a lot of muscle. I'd still rather have the Enzo though.

I would rather have the cuda :) i would be happy to go get groceries in that thing.

[Scootimus]

That is one nice car. I thought the story was just funny. the Enzo driver was just egging him on... Oh its got a little more to go.

s'yeah....and burn $30 of gas in one trip. :P

[rchecks]

well probably use more then that as I doubt i would go right there and back :)

the enzo probably gets worse mileage.
i donno about the chrysler engine, but if they used a LS motor with a modern transmission, they could make the same power and still pull mid twenty city and low thirty hwy mileage.

Agreed. That thing probably only guzzles gas when it's making boost. My rex would get around 18/24mpg city/highway, but less than 6-8mpg running hard (~20psi).

keep in mind that the Cuda has the aerodynamics of a brick. The enzo was designed to slip thru the air. Amazing that the cuda went so fast.

Talk about snapping your neck. Imagine how fast that thing slows down when you get off the gas.

:headache:

can someone explain to me how you "run out of dyno"?

when it hit 1001 HP it just said "too fing much" instead on the screen

most dynojet car dynos are inertia dynos. they measure how fast the car can spin a known weighed mass (the drum)
once you start accelerating the drum so fast, a few issues arise, such as traction slippage vs RPM, and the resolution of the dynojet drum speed sensor itself.

most common dynos have a max of about 1000-1200hp. you exceed that, and you cant measure the increase in power.


since you work with tiny little motors that dont even make 300hp, you can run an eddy current dyno without the cost of the dyno being excessively high... so short of a turbo busa or something like that, you wont have that issue.

That is BADASS and I think I would have to take the Cuda over the Enzo....
