That is incredible. At the end of the day, there really isn't THAT much done to that car and yet, it turns those kinds fo numbers and can be driven to work. Sell it to me.

F'n A !!!!!! Now that's what I'm talking about !!!
124 MPH in the 1/8th LOL .
And, folks need to take note that this was accomplished on 315/35/17 Hoosier's.
Many a person simply over tire their cars for drag racing purposes....the 275/40/17 and 315/35/17's are all that's needed to hook and trap 160+ in the 1/4.
Outstanding job, my brotha !!!!!
