How Should My Car run

Hey Im curious about what my car should run. I have everything listed below. The motor is one of those Trickflow Kits for 490 Horse and 440 Torque. I want to go to the track soon but just wondering if anyone has a good estimate. If you guys could also post your setups and what you run that would be awesome. Thanks!

Umm...I think your in the wrong board.

The theoretical racing board(scroll farther down) would be the proper forum for this.

As for other people's setup: While searching(important word here) for other answers about your car, other people commonly post their setups in their sig. I haven't really checked out the new vbgarage on the new forums, but that could also help.

Not trying to be mean, but a little looking around can find you what you need. Instead of asking people to repost the same stuff over and over, try finding it in the HUGE library that is this wonderful site.

It should run exactly what your time slip says. Not one thousandth more or less.

If you don't have a time slip, go get one.

All else is monkey-spank.
