Thanks, we appreciate it! Bob

For a setup like this, a dyno is next to worthless in judging power. With the old th400 and the huge vigilante converter it would make no more then 633rwhp. Our car with driver is around 3300ish , according to a hp calculator we are making in the neighborhood of 850ish rwhp.

Shame you guys couldnt get a clean pass, car looked great. Good job of getting it back together at the track, I'm sure the next couple times out will get better

you know brent is dying to put a clutch in that car... just let him! that way no more converter problems... i think a lenco/jefco would be a beautiful piece.

We were disappointed about it. We had that 9.12 1/4 run with the 1.29 60ft, and we thought we'd keep getting quicker. The next pass was the one where it took out the oil pan, and the steering got messed up too. The front of the car looks like it is sitting lower now. We're going to put some new springs in the front and scale the car and then re-align it, all after Sema. Moser needs to pick the car up today to get it ready for Sema!!!! Bob

Thanks! The bottom of the bumper is ground off, and it bent the crap out of my license plate. That license plate cost me a small fortune, as I've never plated the car in the five years that I've owned it. I use to drive the car with a dealers plate on it. Bob

1.29 on a ET Street Radial? Wow! Nice, saw the car but you weren't around. Was looking forward to meeting you. Clean build! Looks like a set of wheelie bars are in your future and so are the 8's!
