My friends nitro Harley has about 1000hp and runs 6.2 and it weighs nothing compared to a street legal car.
I am still only on page 8 or 9 so you may have posted a time slip. I will continue reading. I just had to get that out of my system.

Do you even know what an Outlaw car is? How much power do you suppose a twin turbo high compression 427 (on methanol no doubt) is likely making? On motor alone it would be 500 minimum, likely 600+. Add in 14+ psi and 1500+ is not hard to imagine, if he's running an aftermarket block strong enough to handle it. Likewise a Fox body Mustang is already a tin can with good suspension for drag racing, and can be made ridiculously light...2800 lb race weight isn't uncommon.

My friends nitro Harley has about 1000hp and runs 6.2 and it weighs nothing compared to a street legal car.

Harley motors and racing bikes have absolutely no comparison to four wheeled doorslammers with forced induction V8s...everything is different between the two.

If some one said they were getting 3lbs per light and didn't show a pic of the buds you would probably question it.

Wait I just saw where he said T56 turbos...somehow my eyes skipped over that detail...now I'm confused because I have never heard of that model turbo. T56 to me is a transmission...

Just sounds like a wish list. Sounds like he was just trying to start shit. He insulted every car exept some domestics. I love these guys that only like 1 or 2 brands, saves more for me.
That's like saying I only like white and Spanish chicks. I think all types are hot. Unless there huge and ugly.
