831whp twin top Mount 370z stock engine

Maybe, I am staying at just below 800hp with a built motor. That appears to be the point where stuff goes wrong with a built engine. He can run it every now and then but eventually it will sling a rod. That's the first weak point.

At least it will be epic

Looks like fun! Enjoy it!

I saw a 3rd gear pull on Instagram of this car. It sure seems kinda slow for the 780hp setting. 3rd gear for me at 718hp you better hold the fuxx on.

At the end of the day people are going to do what they want to do regardless. This is not the first stock block HP that has been posted or bragged about. If not this car someone can easily look at another stock block record and think I can do that then end up learning quickly they can't.

The worst part is Facebook and Instagram are feeding the "new" guys bologna sandwiches all day every day and for those who dont come to the forum are completely screwed.

The forum is the only place that has useful information with facts and help. FB and IG are a bunch of morons who chime in to either pretend they know something or to purposely ruffle feathers and thrive off drama. I absolutely hate it.

Based on the testing Z1 did, that is not the case.

I was being sarcastic

If someone puts the effort ..money ..time and research to achieve high numbers ,why shouldn’t they post it and brag about it ...that the fruits of the labor ....before anyone invest in any build they should do their research to ensure THEIR car doesn’t blow up. The more people post/brag the more ground work that is done for the people that do research to learn the limits and what causes issues and how prevent it from happing. That’s the research that should never stop.

There is no actual limit though. Wear and fatigue is cumulative. There is no defined line where the engine has become terribly unreliable. We just know that it is theoretically less and less dependable the further you go. So if there is no clear line to the limits of the engine, how do we define a clear line where someone is being a poor roll model or misleading others when advertising their achievements?

This sort of record stuff is always going to go this way, and its like this for all platforms. Pushing these records ultimately helps a community dial-in their expectations. If its the world record, common sense tells you that this car is currently pushing the known limits, and you should assume that if you do the same you are taking on some risks.

I do strongly feel that there should be more consumer awareness in this industry to appropriately align the expectations of the owners. People only see the results with no real understanding of what might have occurred behind the scenes to get there. But that responsibility does not automatically fall into the hands of people setting records.

I have personally spent a lot of energy over the years talking customers out of builds that I know will ultimately make them miserable. Most of them actually just dont want to hear it and seem to get frustrated with me for it.
