When I saw this post I figured I would chime in, that car belongs to a local guy here in West Texas.. the DA on that pass was over 4500 ft easy.. I race at that track all the time.

His site.. http://members.aol.com/fourced/

Since that video it has run a best of 9.25 @ 145 in better air

http://members.aol.com/fourced/video...145-hi-res.mpg

I'm in the 9.25 video over on the left.. lol

The best part is,he also DRIVES that car to the track.. completely street legal and street driven, its an awesome car.. truely one of a kind

He's a really friendly and nice guy the couple times i've talked to him, he also has a low 12 second Supra and had a 11 second EVO.
