Default Who owns....

The Custom painted Purple / blue T/A that was being delivered at SLP day in Ohio?

Shop from PA said the owner was from Cleveland, and was picking up the car that day. I dont want to post too much about it, if he is trying to keep some secrets. (but if he doesn't mind, please post buildup.)

Might be the badest FI ls1 in the country right now, in an f-bod.

Btw, you were following me out of the track when I was leaving. NBM 2000 formula MI plate INCONTT

Sorry if I had any rocks come off the drag radials, I was trying to go slow. I figured that why you were hanging back.

There is a guy in Ohio (Cleveland area) with a 8.75:1 409ci Incon TT (big turbos) in a TA. I thought that he was switching to nitrous, but he may have changed his mind.

This may be him.

Rod442, did it come from Strope Speed Shop in Washingto PA? If so, I know what numbers it put down--absolutely disgusting. And yes, it will be the fastest 4th gen according to the times here and on LS1.com.

I forgot the name of the shop, tried to get a business card but they didn't have any. That sounds familiar though. It should be the same car.

And yes, the numbers were sick. At least for a dynojet, anyway. lol

Hopefully the owner or someone else will chime in. I wasn't trying to steal his thunder.

Yeah, thats not him. that car was done by ARE and was a 30th TA (white w. blue stripes).

This car started off as a NBM TA (year?). And I'll give a hint, has a different block than stock or out of a truck. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I know that ARE has been working on a (hopefully) 800+rwhp iron block TT 30th TA for quite a while now. Hopefully the owner will chime in sometime soon <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

There was a TA from PA that was in a magazine.

I also had heard of a guy building two cars, one of which would be a minitubbed convertible Formula with a big blower setup.
