With enough stall/gearing and the right tires it can yank em both!

How long parts may last is another story

EDIT: Oops, almost forgot - great times and impressive shots!! That thing sure is moving out with that little LT1

Thanks guys.
The best of the day was 13.11. I was .3 off my best that day. I believe it was because I was using the steel rims w/26" compared to my best pass being on aluminum rims with 26" and I was not speed shifting(1 1/2hr drive back home), we also had a good head wind. I'm full weight(whatever that would be), launching at 5500rpm. Shedding weight and adding gear and tune for next year.

Nice...that thing hooks.

I would have guessed unlikely but you have shown me the light lol.

I need to get me some slicks and skinnies ASAP....actually i can wait the tracks down here are closed for winter. I'm dying to pull a wheel off the ground.
