Default Blew up my 10 bolt
Any sponsors gonna be running specials on a 9" in april or may?? I'll be getting a 9" regardless, but a deal on one is always great...
It blew up on the track, it was good times, had to get towed home. Lol, oh well though....

Pretty slow, just a bolt on car. One of the lucky guys that just had a **** 10 bolt. I ran a best of 13.8 spinning thru 1st gear... 13.5 woulda happened, but when I actually hooked off the line, the 10 bolt bit it. I'm at 5800 above sea level, that's why the slow times.

4k launch on ET Streets lol. Not the best of ideas on a 10 bolt. I knew it was gonna blow up though. Sooner or later, they all do.

Yeah, I've been looking at all those guys as well as midwestern chassis... I saw a guy post up pics of his last night, and that thing was awesome.
