What index are we talking about about to be competitive? 7.XX? Is it a bracket class? And how are you going to be competitive with a 10.doh car?

I don't know where you keep pulling this 7 second car crap from, all I was asking was how you plan to be competitive with a 10.00 car, as in what are you going to do to step your game up to be competitve? Just inquiring...nothing more nothing less. I just have a daily driven full interior street car. Nothing to see here

The "7 Second Crap" as you call comes from your comments. To be honest I know MY car is not the fastest LT1 around....it is ranked around 15th.. Half the cars in front of it no longer run or have been sold. LSx cars with turbos should run in the 7s so I figured with the way you have been talking down on people over and over in different threads that MUST be your goals just like your friends Nate and Eric.
I have yet to see a creative or helpful out of you or any of your buddy's there and it has not gone un-noticed. This is not stang net or the corral

No problems. My Biggest hold back is no time to work on it. The car was on its way to what looks like 9.80s last year but the track would not hold it. The 330ft was 0.200 sec faster then my 10.0 passes but the dipp in the track was right where I shift into third.
As far as up grades this year? We put the car on a diet. It will still be fully street legal and comfortable but I gave up a few of the things I liked the most like A/C and air bags. The future looks like a 700RWHP+ 18* 434 with a 400+ shot. Then maybe a set of turbos. I already have a set of turbo's here that would make 1200RWhp but I am not in the mood to screw with all the crap that goes with them.
I really do not plan on going faster then 8.5s in this car...but I plan on being close eventually
