nice trans am looks like the 3rd one was his best. With a little less tire pressure i bet he could shave some time off of those since he spins some off the launch.

I don't have any specs on it, I was hoping the owner would chime in if they're on here. I just saw it on my nightly streetfire searching. Theirs another vid of it doing a burnout, def sounds like it has some centrifugal type supercharger on it.

Still running good times with all the tire spin, +1 to him for shifting his own gears!

He needs to invest some money in some suspension, thats a 9 sec. car with a decent 60, I bet they were over 2 secs.

With that much spinning he was not cutting 1.8's, my car did something VERY similar on a bad launch the other weekend, cut a 2.2 60' looked the same. Next pass 1.4 60'.
