Nah, he was claiming 7.8X @ 92ish 1/8ths last week.

Put the new motor in, and surely he didn't slow down.

from 7.80's in the 1/8 to 9.11 in the 1/4? that's got one hell of a top end pull

and to think, we all thought taner's 9.60 pass was an accomplishment. This guys going faster on nitto's and a 10-bolt

Different motor. He 'supposedly' had a heads/cam LS1, yanked it for the iron block stroker + nitrous.

He's still a tool either way.

I had a 7.2 1/8 mile and only turned a 11.38. He did a 7.8 1/8 and finished at 9.11. Sure. You bet. With a 500 shot after the 1/8 maybe.

Ditto that.. maybe he has a button he hits after the 1/8th which ejects all the doors, hatch, fenders, and everything but the chassis/wheels/engine off the car

thats the biggest BS ive ever heard... 7.8 to 9.11 on A STOCK 10BOLT??
But remember, its not the 10bolt, its how its setup :p BWAAHAHHAHHAHHHA

Guys, he was claiming the 7.80's on his old motor. lol.

He didn't make the 9.11 claim until after he put the new motor in. No mention of 1/8 ET/MPH or 1/4 MPH. He did say 17" Nitto's/4.56, which means he would be crossing the line somewhere around 6000rpm in 5th gear with the T-56, according to my calculations (25.6" tire, ~150mph)

For some reason, I don't think he'll be posting much more.

This guy needs to start a class on how to drag race with a manual trans, because all of us must be doing something wrong.

Hmmm...maybe i should sell my 28x10x15 goodyear eagles and buy some nittos! might as well toss my 10-bolt back in there too.
