Kickass Brad. Did you get an videos of this run? Your other videos have been great! |
You should sell those junk AFR heads and get Dartons. JUST KIDDING! LOL No harm intended to anyone. :) |
Hot damn noyzee I was waiting to see how your setup would do. I think you are the only guy swaying me to go back to an aluminum block. Just don't know how they'll do over a long while with those power levels. Nate |

Congrats on the times. How come they weren't going to let you run? Sounds like they didn't like you or something :jest:. Oh, and that is the most sleeper 9 second car (soon to be 8) I've ever seen. Sweet ride. |
