Looks like it was cold out. That definitely wasn't yesterday at Piedmont.

7.52@96.8 is probably around 11.6 @ 120 or so.

Rockingham is going to be having a late night t-n-t on Sat, July 25th, 7pm-2am. Find out for sure what it will do in the 1/4.

wore out the DR and bought new street tires so i could drive it all the time,not just when it dont rain,so ill have to wait till i get sum more tires and i want a track setup so that might take a little while,unless i find a really good deal.

$25,000 should have gotten you 9s hah (unless you are including the price of the car, then just ignore me.. )

But yea that is somewhere in the 11s.

uhhh...

kinda rough numbers.. but you will get the idea..

2k in rear

1k in trans

1500-2k in nitrous setup

4k in short block

1100 in intake

1500 heads


plus a whole lot of other things.. standalone, full suspension, bogarts, full cage, guages, etc etc etc.. all the little **** that adds up..

Almost the same my car does on motor. I would say that would have been a mid-low 11 second pass.
