Can we talk about the 1,000 hp elephant in the room?

I would love to see these racers get on a dyno. I bet some of them would be crawl fishing real quick. My money is on hulk or attitude buggy.

But what's funnay is who won the championship without posting his specs but if I remember right someone made a video that said 1400 or so hp... he prob only had 350crank hp. Hell if he opened a shop....

It's only 1250. That's why he doesn't win every race he enters.

He does have a nice setup. Talked to him and took several pics.

I would like to see some specs on this blown 2,000 horse big block. That's not going to be an easy feat on gasoline.

It's the whole street race Fast and Furious thing. Everyone is scared their secret might give the other guy an edge. I am no expert but dropping the hammer and holding it to the floor isn't how most guys are winning. Sure HP helps but having a tuned suspension set up and knowing how to drive is what's going to win, right? I could have TC's entire build sheet for his motor or any of the other 1000+ (at the balls) horsepower bouncers and I still won't win cause I can't drive :dunno:

Steering and suspension mean more than horsepower.

Ill bet its not on gasoline. If it is then the owner must also own a piston company.

Don't reckon it matters how many horsepowers you say your have, or how many the clickbait artists decide to put in the title of a YouTube vid. If you aren't clearing the bounty hills out the top or on the podium then you might as well be in a Toyota

Best comment ever. You win!!! Everyone sell your trail bouncers and build toyotas!!!! Once bouncers came to light everyone and their brother had to have one. Lets get back to some old school rigs. Leave the bouncers for competition
