it runs a 1/4 low 12's @ 137mph, on p-zeros

Doubling back on this because that MPH seems way off. 137 mph would be a 9 or 10 second pass dude.

Not really. If you’re going at a reasonable speed all 3 of those vehicles make it with plenty to spare.

That graph is bullshite. Everyone knows that if you drive faster you get better mileage.

Well, yeah. If stock 392’s are running low 12’s and you have intake, LT’s + exhaust, and a tune you should be hitting 11’s. Either your spinning or full of shite because as I mentioned, 137 mph in the 1/4 is a 9 or 10 second run.

its a heavy car, so more gear (4:10-4:30) would help alot

drop the top speed, but gets thru the first 2 traps faster

very tall tires on it currently

Congrats. I hope your shite doesn't burn down.

try getting the inspection passed with a 200 amp main, and 5 50 amp breakers installed.
I don't have 5 50 amp breakers, but I have 2 60s and 2 40s, plus a couple dozen 20s.

Now let's get back to why you think you're onto some sort of "gotcha" here when there are homes all over the country with 240v EV chargers and mains service as low as 100 amps happily getting on with life and without adding at all to the peak usage of their home or neighborhood.

I’m aware. I had a B5 Blue 2010 SRT8.

From 137 to reality…which would be 110 to 115ish. You aren’t trapping 137 with a low 12 pass.

Still curious what you think about my idea.

Think there is 10-15 spots there. Apparently a lot of the Uber drivers leave the car there once they are done charging blocking up spots.

I'm surprised if people are actually waiting for these chargers. Most chargers at stores, parks, etc. are slow level 2 chargers. Meaning that in most cases you need to be plugged in for 8 hours or more to "fill up". I would expect them to be full though, because why not. Most places these chargers are free, provide preferred parking. So if you have EV, makes sense to park and charge something if the space is open.


I used to live right over there and frequented that Winn Dixie. they're legit Tesla chargers. Not sure if there are different speeds of official Tesla chargers. There's a shite ton of transformer pads at that station.. they have to be pulling some significant juice.

I never saw a line when I was over there, usually it was empty.
