For those that aren't on yb. Stefan D's car is getting a facelift. It's going to look insane!












Here's a video of it making a half-track pass. It's violent!

Can I run Alcohol? It would really help with the low end, since I won't be turning that much in the way of rpms. I'll run it in outlaw.

You can run nitro if you want. The only rule in outlaw is it has to have an LT1/4 based engine block in it.

I think Chi-town has had more of those golden opti's come home than New England. Chi-town is also home to the first 8sec LT1 and hopefully the first 7sec this year.

HHAAHAHAHAH the only thing you guys got is hot weiners.... and i mean the food kind not the tiny ones you guys are sporting in your pants....

We all know the two biggest states have the fastest LTx cars... cali and Texas.... and it ends there.... the Bandimere Beast is no longer LTx. Everyone else has seemingly gone boost..... Shep currently rules the nitrous war but I want to change that...

and i've got a set of 215 RR heads that just might change the balance of power...
