I'm not sure, but being that you are all wheel drive and HEAVY, I would expect you to get WALKED by that Max. Also, sense your gonna shut off right before 100, that Max will pull up to and beyond 135-140mph. Forget the neutral drop, and maybe even forget the whole deal, especially if his is the 5 speed as mine is an auto. IF your anything like me, I know your gonna try him anyway! Hell, I'd race John Force if he pulled up next to me at a red light! LMAO!
well.. the best he went on the gtech with the 95 auto max was a low 16. so id figure it will be close. with hpp3 i think i got em no prob

15.80 with a AUTO. The best run was a 15.82 and the worst was a 15.88. I've Busted every Honda SI and Contour SVT in the hood. (LOL). I got a handicap parking permit I like to hang in the window first, then I ask the kids in honda's if they've ever been beat by a crippled old man driving his wife's car. The car was super consistant. As for wheel spin goes, I got a set of Kumho's on it and it really doesn't spin. I didn't know you had a Hypertech, that will really help. Go try him out and let us know how it goes.

Oh, and as for the G-Tech, mine was a tenth high. I ran my truck at the track with the Gtech in the window, my time slip said 15.12, and the gtech said 15.22. Then it went 14.98, and the gtech said 15.09. Still, not bad for something you plug in the lighter! I was impressed with its accuracy. But if his went a low 16 on the gtech, I'd say its probrobally just as fast as my wifes. The only thing we have on ours is a drop in K&N filter, which can't possibly add much power anyways.

well heres the deal... no moneys involved but alot of **** talking has lead up to this now so i would like to win. ill probably set the hpp3 to take every shift to redline and just by doing that i should pass em in every gear. his best gtech was a 16.1, so i would say its somewhere around the speed of ur wifes. i gotta go gtech the denals and see what it does... i might back down.
ive been in both and the denali defenently has the bottom end beat.. i just hope he doesnt pass me at like 70ish..

either way itll make a funny video

It will probably be a close race. You might want to try some weight reduction before racing.
