Default Hitting the track here soon.
Maybe some of you guy browse threw the hybrid section and seen my build, but for thoes who havent. Its just a single turbo, iron block, th400 in a fox body. Ive owned it for about 3 and a half years now. Hoping to blow my old goal of a 8.99 Out of the water this time and get my name on the lsx fastest list.

Guess I assumed you would race at Cecil since you are in Maryland..... Either way, it's a great looking notchback.
