So your saying his 1/8 mile et when his car is tuned will drop a full second? I find that a little hard to believe.

He is being sarcastic. But assuming it pulls a good 60' it should run more like 7.10-.20 @94-95 (after the tune is dialed in) which would put it at a very low 11 on motor but set up for nitrous. With a motor converter and it dialed in I wouldn't be surprised if it had a 10.9X in it on motor. So in short, maybe not a FULL second but possible 6.9X-.80
