Yeah thats Chris's car, he works there, the car isn't going to be there now though because they took it to store it on saturday. The car is straight up disgusting fast, sounds awsome too. Hope by next year I can have my car set up almost like that one.

If it's the same guy, it's a cam+spray car(or so they say).

If it's a 6-speed + 10-bolt I'm not worried.

Unless your car is running in the single digits don't run against that car.

That's cool, although my car is for sale and will be gone by then. I'll have something else out though(Slow street cruiser )

We're also putting together a notch with a 306 and a blower. On a 10.5w. It'll be looking for trouble this Spring.

If it's truely a 10-bolt and a 6-speed(sounds like you actually saw it), it's not in the 9s.

Sounds like a big nasty sounding car thats not really fast. Big power plus 6 speed plus 10 bolt means BOOM.


TH400, forged steel, driveshaft and a 12 bolt Spray it hard out of the hole and don't worry about it.

6 speed and 10 bolt = not in the single digits. Maybe 1/8th mile, but not 1/4 mile
