Nah. I knew I was red before the car even moved. I kept the street tires on it and was compensating for the difference between them and drag radials with a lower launch rpm and really hitting the bottom bulb. Well I hit it...

 lol/......don'tcha hate it when ya know?


 like i said, i'd heard rumors of a road course rematch.....THAT i'll be there for, and run in it. i suspect the same results though.


 BTW......did that 56 chevy look as good in person as it did in the pictures? and did i see a black granada in the staging lanes?

found a list of what it took to get the gt500 into the mid 9's.

 throttle body, cold air intake, tune, colder plugs, ati crank dampner, little extra boost, headers, 4.30 gears, shell urt fuel. they didn't say what size slicks, but from the pics, they look to be 10.5's, truly stock chassis.

 i may have missed something there, but that's a pretty darn small list of bolt ons to get a car to hit mid 9's in the upper 140mph range, and still be weighing around 3800#.

That all depends on "a little boost" means.

In my neck of the woods, 25psi is "a little boost".
