Default South Texas Gxp running Mid 11's

Just saw a G8 Gxp running Mid 11's on Texasdragracing.com just wondering who it is? Made my stock G8 Gxp look like I was running him in reverse the other day down U.S. 281 Northbound

I went to check that TX dragway site and it crashed my pc. After a couple
of small changes I'm hoping for something in the 11.50s or 60s in the spring.

If you look carefully at the video you can tell that he spins the tires off the line. I think this car is a low 11 sec car. Let chicken get some more time behind the wheel and I am sure he can drop those times especially if you guys can get it to hook off the line. Cant wait to see those 10 second 1/4 times.

That is what happened to me when I tried to race my buddy's G8 with a cam and TC. He left the line good and I spun....
