Project Black Golfball-plans for 2007 Options

[black92_tsi_awd]

I decided to start a new thread for this year.

My goals this year:
1) To run at least 6 of the Quartermaster Series bracket races this year at Cordova and place somewhere in the points.
2) Try to get in the 11's (I'll take a 11.999) on the 14B with a relatively full weight car. ie. NO gutting the car.

I decided to take a little more scientific plan to it this year and examine what's possible and plan around that.

All calculation done at 3200lb car weight (est) and using the web site: HP Estimator

HP required to run my best 1/4 mile of 12.65@108 is 312 at the wheels so that's my base.
HP estimated to run a 11.90 is 375

So I need to pick up 63 HP to run a solid 11...hmmmm that seems to be alot to expect on a 14B.

Looking at my best 1/8 mile time of 7.92@88.5 (that I got at Vicary Day after the accident that shut down 1/4 mile racing), that equates to a 12.43 @112.39 using 1/8 mile converter, That HP requirement is 329. That leaves me about 46 HP short....

Leaves me to wonder, do these numbers seem feasable? 312(329) wheel HP with a 14B? Is 375 possible??

I think that leaves me two choices, cams or selective weight decrease involving nothing that involves gutting the car like the AC system.
