I know that there is an entire class for "sleepers" like that. I had read something about them requiring stock suspension, rims, and street tires. They were single digit cars. I'll see if I can find it again.

Only cars with a torque arm should be a 3rd-4th generation F-body or an '87 GNX.

I'll find the article I read on that ride (nasty crash too!), but I can tell ya people were running 7.70s at 190 mph + at the US Street Nationals last month, with the drag radial r/u going 7.64 at 194 mph a week later at Gainesville with a SBF single turbo 02 Mustang at 3,400 lbs.
EDIT: 7.49 at 201 mph was the pass.

Either way, it's a very impressive car.
