most of the normally modded scoobs should run 13s quarters with practise, its not always as easy as people think it should be launching a 4wd car properly! you'll need to do a few runs before you find that out!
if you break 150+mph in the 1.2miles top speed run also you will have done very well, last time out a lot made 135-145mph at the distance with std/lightly modded scoobs. takes decent power to break 150mph on there, 160+ is excellent, and 170+ is the BIG power cars territory.
quite a buzz pushing your car to those sort of speeds knowing you wont get nicked for trying

i would say you would need to be doing sub 12 second 1/4s to get anywhere at the competition as well as 160+ in the top speed runs as well as taking the odd CORNER

no handling course at Scoobyshootout, so hopefully no one will be taking any corners at speed! ;-)
but i expect a 10s run from the wnning car and 170+ mph top speed will take a trophy home
the drag shootout final will be won by the best reaction/skill on the day in the final, not always by the fastest car.

Seriously though I have put my sensible head on and I don't think its in the same class as all the other hot metal there, plus it's up for sale as I have a baby girl on the way so on second thoughts please don't include me in the draw as I think some of the other guys here are far more deserving.
Thanks
