Thanks Cd!
I was looking at the HOT ROD Magazine,1980 Camaro you posted an image of awhile back.
That car,at Bonneville,with a Pro Stock hoodscoop and 925-950 horsepower,did 255 mph on loose salt.
261.602 mph on "better salt."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The car had:
* 100% grille-block
*nose dropped into the weeds
*MOONs
*extended rear spoiler with up-kick angle of 19-degrees
*Backlight-to-trailing edge of spoiler angle of 15-degrees
*35 F ice-water-cooled inter-cooler intake manifold
*4,190 lb race weight
*Length/height = 4.05
*effective 'Template' of 48% aft-body
*BSFC 0.53-0.56 pounds/hp-hr
*Approx. 3.11 mpg @ 260 mph
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
It would be interesting to see a side-by-side comparison of the 'Super Cuda' with 'Blowfish,' at Cd 0.20.
