405/400 is at the motor, subtract about 15% for drivetrain and you get 345ish to rw. He was probably putting down the 370/380 to the wheels.

well, actually. fbody drivetrain loss is 15% vettes have more than that, but still the point is it has 405 crank HP. and when i raced him he was stock, but now he has a Corsa exhaust and 315s out back.

Unless they're 315 nittos then I don't think the tire argument is valid. You just need to worry about his tranny gearing and that 400-500 lbs you've got on him. I still think you've got a pretty good chance. Just run open headers and you'll deafen him into submission.

Because your 275 nittos are better than his 315 whatevers.

Damn, those wore out quick. Maybe it was that extra grabby clutch of yours.
