Hey Don
Yes they are. I lived in Miami for a few years and was entrenched in the car culture down there as well. You couldent walk 100ft at a car meet without running into a 600+ whp car and 800whp cars were common. Sad to say though I never saw ANY of them at the track, so who knows what they would actually run

I may not have seen them at the track but they did come out to the street though. Highspeed highway runs is what they do down there and the way they dismantled the proven 400whp vettes/Fbodies in our group I believe the numbers.

As you already know its not that hard to make those numbers with FI vipers and big single turbo supras.

But I agree crank her up to 20psi. I'll have the camera ready thats for sure.

I can't count on making an appearance. I am at the airport right now heading to Tampa for a couple weeks, then when I return I will be home for a week, then onto a plane to Ohio for a couple weeks. I'll probably be in Ohio until mid April. From there it's back to the remodel of our house... which takes place on the weekends!

Have fun fellas!

To tell ya the truth, I haven't hit this site in a while. I'm spending too much time at work firing people, then picking up the pieces! I'm hoping to have a couple of new guys/gals working for me in the next couple of weeks. I'm in NY now about to do 2nd round interviews. I'm dying to see if you got any taller, since the last dyno day!
