Default Alright, stupid question time!!!
Sorry guys, I know it's probably been beat to death around here. I was wondering who has (or even had) the fastest N20 powered LS1 car. I am thinking it was the Agostino car. They went like 8.54 @ ???

BTW, yes I did use the search function and still could not find any info.

We've been a 5.85 @ 121mph on a 350 shot. We leave on a 150 though.. The car should be lined out and be ALOT faster for the Year One shoot out.. Still one kit.. and a heavy SOB!

ESP is building a nitrous Outlaw car so you might have to shoot for low 8s.
