Grab a copy of the latest Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords, one of them is in there this month, and won the Commerce event, posted the fastest pass of the year and fastest average, and dominated the Virginia event before losing an alternator belt in the water box on the last pass. All that with the car on radials for the first time and a progressive controller turned WAY back.

Like i said, just because they are fast, doesn't mean they aren't street cars.

i COMPLETELY agree. the guys that run in the NMRA events are running 8's and 9's. and they ARE street cars. IMO just because the car doesnt have some creature comforts doesnt mean it isnt streetable. with todays technology, achieving the above isnt hard.
