[QUOTE="jsburkey21, post: 726906, member: 1814"] I diddnt read the whole thread cause i have too much shits to do. HOWEVER, measuring horsepower at the crank is like measuring your **** behind your balls. I think the reason we do it is because it would really suck if you told everyone rear wheel horsepower numbers in a bouncer. “Hey man how much HP does that thing have?, man its a SOLID 326 hp” ohhhhh... as they loose interest. Quoting crank HP sounds way cooler, your tape measure just gets a little poo on it ???????? For real though, crank HP on the handful of buggies we are building right now: 1,000 1,000 1,500 1,600 . All are supercharged, (2) have been engine dynoes. The 1,600 hp blown big block buggy has a 2,000hp+ capeable engine. We aernt stupid. We toned it down to 1,600 cause i think it would be undriveable any higher and 1,600 i think is still pushing what our current drivetrains can handle. If the internet keyboard dyno masters want to talk crap we will swap pulleys on the blower and put down whatever HP numbers they say we cant hit. I think pro rock should have a DYNO day before or after a race. I think a TON of people would watch that and we could see who the real king of HP is. Love yall, get off the internet and build something ???????? [/QUOTE]
