No joke I will sale it for 1/2 of whats in it...your not gonna believe it when I tell you...but ya gotta have Big nads for them little tire's in the mid 4's over 3,000 lbs.. @160MPH (1/8 MILE) 1.10 60'S . :P lol

Hell I just thought I was running fast at 5.60's on 15x33's...then they strapped me in that Outlaw car with 10 inch tires and turned both guns on.. :roll: :roll: ...still Get weak knee's thinking about the 1st time I let go of that button and both guns came on blazing....Dayyyyyyymmmmm


I would have to have 2 diapers one for the car and one for me. :lol: I had a heart attack at the race track in 2007 and life flighted. And that was after 9's pass. :shock:


oh no !!!!...car has diaper...but you gotta stay out of this one..when we tested the car at Bradenton we held into it a little past the 1/8...little bit past the 660 mark we ran it and shut it down..came back and reviewed the race pack and we were running 184mph with a bunch if 1/4 track left...lol

Its been 154mph so far in 1/8 and that is Not pushing it and Very humid weather it would go 160mph same tune up...I am gonna give it a try in Atlanta this year and see if i can get A full 1/4 pass down the track....My goal would be to reach or exceed the 200mph mark....don't know... we will see how close we are with the tune up I have in it... I gotta a 28/32 on 1st hit with a 30/34 coming on 2 hundreds after...so the 1st hit is on off the tranny button and the other just as a come out. both are in real good and pullig hard way before 60 ft mark......its different I assure you...like someone pushing in on your chest.

Last year on the night runs I started losing clear vision of the track..I would come out of the hole really hard and when it started pulling hard it had a natual power vibration I call it and it would litterly cause me to blink out for a brief second...not all the way out just had to really focus on the track it was coming at me faster then I could register and at night.


That is flying. :shock: I saw all the pic's you had it looks sweet. :!: :!:

One thing..I personally believe used parts should never be priced more then 50% of original cost of the part no matter how little its used...used is USED in my book.

a used ring/pinion is a very iffy thing to buy used, I know a lot of local guy who beat on them nos/blower stuff they change often because they took a whipping already and they dont want them to break on them. Lifters,rockers, trq converters are all in the same vote as a transmission to me, most rebuildable. I've bought all the above used several times and had 0 issues :D

rockers are for sure a decent thing to pick up used, the cost to have rebuild is usually little and normally you save 100's of $ going that way. JMO

your right normally 50% is what things go for used depending on the market.
