Also, anybody know what kind of whp supercat is putting down, they're dumbing the power of a turbo LS4 on CGP.

10.88@121!! I think that makes it the fastest LS4. That's a hell of a deal for that car!!

I'd be interested to know more. From what I can see, it appears to be the Cartuning kit on it.

Agreed, my WS6 trapped 122 when it went 11.15, and that was on a 1.7x 60ft, I dont see that Monte landing a low 1.6x or better, I'm needing proof of that timeslip.

That's why I said contact ZZP.

Could've had a REALLY good driver and some good slicks?

I believe the 10.88 @ 123 is possible. My 11.49 was at 117 mph. so add 6 mph and a 10th sec for every mph could end up a 10.88. I've run a few 123 mph 1/4 miles last month with limited traction and terrible 60 foot times on slicks at a badly prepped track. I may take a look at this car tomorrow on my way back home to see what's exactly on it.
