A race motor in a street car is no different than a street motor in a race chassis.

I think my chevy two was the closest to a real street car and fast and Xtreme built the motor and Ace built the tranny. But I ran around on 26 x 8" tires full exhaust, AC, Stereo, all metal not fiberglass full interior 3200lbs with driver and 93 pump gas. It was a mid 10sec car on motor all day long and into the 9s on a 100 shot. No tubs and all factory metal.

This is not an arguement just my opinion and will always be my opinion even if someone else agrees to disagree.

It was not the fastest but it was up there IMO. But it was the most fun to drive I bet!

Here are some 1/8 mile timeslips after we got all the bugs worked out.

Doesnt that car have like a 402 in it and jug? Im sorry to hear that your car isnt as fast as some stock motored and bottled LS1 cars that outweigh it by 200 lbs.

Your MPH is way off

Try high 140s LOW 150s. It doesnt make but maybe 800 at the wheels with all the power he can make out of it. Probably more like 700 to be quite honest.

It traps low 120's in the 1/8 and theres NO way that setup will do better then 30 mph out the back door. Hell turbo cars can pick up 30+ easy on the big end....nitrous cars can but not with his setup he aint.

I would love to see what that bitch would pick up with a ported intake and head . You are still using the turbo you got a few months back right?

LOL Having a hard time reading are you!

Helps to have a real idea about something before you run your big mouth. It was built to drive around for fun and run for fun.

I would say Ronnie Pace and Boosted have the fastest cars around here from a dig. And those Vipers are going to be hard to touch from a roll.

This is Ricks car.

Then you should have stuck with a forged stock ci shortblock. I love to hear those excuses. I read it just fine but can also read through smoke n mirrors!

So you call fun giving away money at Cash Days races? If so, I need your occupation you you.

Whiteboy's old school. I think Boosted, Ronnie Pace, Gold and Silver Mustangs from 405, and a few others all have a good shot at beating him. But his car is fast and consistent......
