Default 8.02 @ 178 on drag radials/stock suspension

Its a 3rd gen though! Rick Head from Innovative Turbo and his twin turbo SBC thirdgen went 8.02 @ 178 to win the heavy street final at the PSCA race this weekend. His car is featured on BMR's website, sporting their suspension parts.

Amazing!

I saw this run in vegas this past weekend... it was amazing and really did not look like Rick was trying all that hard. was a nice run! Not bad for 100deg weather and 4500+ feet air

That site is the authority on the web when it comes to turbo charging anything. Chevy guys have been hanging out there for a few years as well as some mopar guys. There are some members there with some FAST turbo cars.

They have a sister site www.turbogms.com as well.

Todd, wtf are you talking about? LOL
