About 335kw atw, it would have to be about the mid 12s. It all depends on the launch, getting out of the blocks at the right revs.
Good luck.

Good power, extreme heavy duty clutch (no slip) big rims and skinny tires. You're going to struggle to get it out of the hole so the ET won't be fantastic but the MPH should be good.

Street tyres or drag radials, What PSI, weather on the day, how good is the track, your 60ft, Either way it will take a few attempts, probably a few days, to get something close to what a good run looks like.

Add driver to that weight too, and then a little bit on top of that to be safe, it is only a guess at best without actually weighing it but then it’ll be in the ballpark.

My brother would never have any breakfast until he had dialed in a time. It seemed to work out ok.
I don't think he ever had a "break out".

I'd say mid to high 12s.

VE's are a heavy beast.

A mate of mine has a VE Calais L98 with a Vortech blower running around 380-400rwkw and he's best ET is around 12.7 from memory with street tyres......he could probably get a bit better on slicks and a stall so he could wholeshot it off the line a bit better.

How do you know considering you are asking?

You do know the figures get fudged, don't you.

Hit the track and find out, then let us know
Will be taking it down to Eastern Creek drag way in 2 weeks.

I know it will run better then a 13 second pass ive owned 12 second cars to 10 second cars.
To be honest I would be happy with anything in the low 12s.

Traction isn't an issue the true track diff has made a huge difference with not wheel spinning as much off take-off.

I'll be running some semi slicks on track day as well.

But true only one way to find out I guess.

Thanks for all your replies people :)
