no, and what's that got to do with it?
My point is that i dont see it going any faster than a 2000hp car because of weight/traction/aerodynamics w/e.

No, there would be a significant decrease in ET and increase in trap speed from 2000hp to 2800hp. Its a drag car, never enough power.

Top Fuel dragsters are the fastest accelerating vehicles on the planet, they have 6000hp or more, and accelerate to 60mph in about .7 seconds, running a 1/4 mile from a standstill in an average of 4.4 seconds over 330mph. If you stood at the finish line at the end the 1/4 mile and had to run across both drag lanes when the light went green you'd be dead because the top fuel dragster would reach the finish line before you could run across the lanes. They are that fast.
