I havnt gotten GMHT for a few years now. But the last few I've seen Have been alot better. I like how you guys have more real peoples cars like camrons. Its not all brand new 5th gens with CAI builds, and 19" black rims. Or a maggie on a g8, that runs 13's.

Congrats man! As soon as I seen the car and times on the cover I thought of your car, I thought it was probably you. Good job on the car, times, and making it on the cover! I still dont know how the motor has lasted as long as it has with a 200 hit, makes me want to turn my spray up though haha!

We've put alot more through it then that 200 hit, just haven't been to a 1/4 mile track for like 4 months. It'll be in the .30s next time out and over 350 passes on the motor. 100+ nitrous passes

So you've ran it with over a 200 shot? Crazy. I've just always been told a 150 is max, but I know of a couple that are spraying over a 150 hit. Are you progressing your nitrous or hitting it all at once out of the whole? It took me a while to figure out to what to set my progressive at for the best launch, I may still be off who knows. I think I am going to throw on some full slicks and bring in a little more nitrous a little faster.

Yup we have an 88 nitrous jet in it right now, just haven't had a sticky tire on it do to the heads up class we run here. We run the progressive for the street tire but on the slick we have it all in on the hit. Our suspension works.

Congrats on the feature!

Just my $.02, 3300 lbs with driver is not that heavy when stock ones with everything weigh in the 3600-3800 range.

Either way, congrats!!

I agree and it was not my wording. haha. But in all reality it is heavy for an fbody racecar. most are in the 3100 lb and less.
