Sorry Dude, you are busted. Mathematically it takes 1,095 horsepower to run an eight mile in 4.95 secs this will mile per hour at 139.4 mph in a 2200 pound car. To put this in another perspective, a 2200 pound car with the same 1095 horsepower would post a quarter mile time of 7.72 secs @174.3 mph. That would be a 600 horsepower small block with a 500 horsepower shot of nitrous all in a single stage from launch to chute. You better try your BS somewhere else, a lot of us have been around long enough to know BS when we here it.
