My whole point is the race car thing. You have no idea. The NMRA class I run in is true street, where we have to make a 30 mile drive and after a 30 minute cool down make 3 quarter mile passes, back to back to back. The point is my car is a 12 to 1 compression motor with an AOD. I drove it to Bowman to run in the Top Dog race, I can run 80mph on the interstate at around 2000 rpm. I would easily drive to your house, idle the whole time I waited on you, and then drive to Dorchester, cool down and race. Not saying the mileage would be the best, but I could do it with my 12 gallon cell and 93 pump gas. Due to the times the car runs I have to have a cage, parachute, and a fuel cell. Believe it or not a fuel cell to NHRA is considered safety equipment. When I started in True Street 12 or so years ago, you were not allowed ET Streets and drag radials were nothing then, the best thing we had were McCrearys or street tires. Mine has tags and is insured all year round, and all my DOT equipment works on the car, and it has a full interior, nothing removed but the center console, and thats cause I didnt want to break it getting in and out the car. Like I said I have no intention on running with street imports, ill leave them to you big guy!:bigthumb:

I personally don't think I can remotely run what I run on drag radials on regular street tires. So every pass I have a feeling I will be laughing my tail off.

This sounds fun, I might make an attempt at a top 5 finish. The new nt05's are going to hate me for this. Since I just added another spring to the wastegate, looks like -10 timing will be added to the tune. Maybe Chis could just toss a rope back to me, I still got my tow hooks on the nose. :ty:

You have stated this before... you obviously know where your car fits in.

And that is very respectable... My only point is you have no intention to daily drive your car... Thus the modifications you've made...
