The first 2 that come to mind in the 8 second range are the Oddball ranger running low 8's, if he hasn't cracked a 7.xx yet, and Duy's 240sx, although Duy's car is definitely not an 8 second car on the street, it has the potential to get there with some fine tuning, as it has already seen plenty of 8 second passes at the track.
Garrett's truck is stupid-fast for a street car.Dude lives down the street from me and its the funniest thing to see that truck go through the school zone.Last I talked to him it went 8.0's

Haha, you guys see the last episode? They were hyping it up big time on Facebook, saying it would be the race of the year and ****. One car broke on the test run, and the other one wasn't even ready and had to change plugs at the spot! WTF?!?! They didn't record this crap that night, they had that recorded from months ago so they knew what the outcome of the night was. But they hyped it up like it was going to be some epic stuff to get views. BS!! And they have on their intro that it has the fastest "Street cars in the Nation"? Those are not street cars, they're gutted out trailer/track queens that they are putting on the street!

Sure looks like a big *** turbo on the front of it
For dependability on the street it’s hard to be a LS Based car. The old school BBC/SBC motors are out dated but don’t be fooled because they can make big power. If you go to the race track you will see 90% of the fastest guys there are running BBC/SBC, you do not see many LS Based cars running the numbers to be completive in most classes.

LMR has a very fast drag radial car, I think it’s the only LSX based car running in X275.

Here is a Picture of my 565 and it would cost over 20k to build this motor…

If you can get that chassis to put the power down this car is gonna be so sick Chad, would make a good run for most of their top 10 if not all without a doubt.

The Chassis will hold the power, it's built very nice. getting 1600hp to hook on the Street is another story...

The engine alone on that murder nova is about 28k:

I wonder how many Proline engines get sold after that last episode...LOL

^^^^ Lol, that just made you cooler than us. I'm sorry if an LS has hurt your feelings. Your Internet bashing is just the same as what most people said on this forum. It's like saying your the greatest because your were a high school basketball player schooling 12 yrs old at the gym. Don't be so butthurt.
