That means my point total would take me to 16.7, definitely not going to make that. Here's how my adjusted power to weight looks like:

<2850 lbs -0.1
BBK -0.2
Rear lower control arm -0.5
shock shaft diameter > 40mm -0.7
Splitter -0.5
A arm/wishbone -0.7

Total = -2.7, meaning I would have to be at 16.7 lbs/avg whp

I think I'll stick with my plan of staying in TT4/ST4 and adding a supercharger.
Folks remember dyno is average not peak FYI. The top end dip and not being a linear curve helps some.

I am at 2870 with half tank of gas and intend to be there

Splitter .5
Independent suspension .7

I have oem brakes and MCS Doubles so no points there. Rear wing appears free?
Says camber arms take -.2 but I have camber plates so like before no points there?

In that case I come in at 15.2. Average whp to be at 187.5 meaning I will have to run e85! this is my track only but still driven to and from and will need a tire trailer to load the fuel jugs.

Looks like tires are free so must run R7 likely 225 to stay ahead.
