That's all you need. Races are won in the first 60 feet.
That's why I don't race.

When you make 500+ hp at the wheels, it's okay to have stuff sticking out of your hood

nah I doubt he will do that, he seems like a pretty straight up old guy, he felt really bad about backin out on this weekend that he said he would give me a couple hundred more off the price.

Nice car. How fast did it go with the other motor in it? It looks like it's ready to go really quick, kinda disappointing that it only goes high 12s.
Bobby Light
12th September 2009, 08:29 AM
He didnt say how fast the old motor went, but he did say that is was 500+ cubes so im sure it wasnt slow.
Im just happy that its a challenger, the speed can come later...hell 12's are enough to rule the skreets round these parts...(pretty sure no one will get me out of the hole)
