That is a pic of Taner's car in the trailor. This thread is to announce that he got an 8 sec pass. I'm not sure if any one else has done the same but I'm pretty sure he might be the only " six speed " that has.

Congrats Taner!!!!!!!! I think the record is 8.95. Tanners got .02 to knock off to hold the LT1 record. I do believe he owns the fastest true 6speed record for any f-body!!!!
