> [@sonic03snake](#): > > Your missing the point, other people have other goals. I could drive my car to california with a wheel and tire change but id rather keep it on the trailer. When you make hp you brake parts so why put the extra strain of driving it all the time when it could cost you a win at a national event? To each their own. costing you a national event is driving style. I drive my car daily for 9 months of the year and only broke one thing in the last 3 years which was a 40 buck axle. if you don;t drive like a moron and build it right it will last so that argument doesn’t work. FMFkid proved driving style is what makes the car. you can go just as fast without power shifting etc. full throttle shift is one thing. :offtopic: will your turbo even make power at 9000rpm Joe? I think you have a .48 AR exhaust which I doubt will make power much over where you redline now ---

Rusty qualified 12th with a 10.34 so how fast do you think the rest of the field is? ---

I trailered mine to the track. It is easier on person, car and time. I don’t wait in line, unload my car with slicks on already. The car is cooled off. If and when a person breaks I am not waiting for someone to drag my ass home. It costs the same amount whether i trailered it or drove it there. I always looked at it as cheap insurance policy. CLIFF NOTES-Who gives a f#ck if you trailer it to the track Fast is still fast no matter how you get down the track ---

Would’nt that be the equal to the throttle body of a fuel inj car? Humm I have no motor plates and if i did how does that compare to a turbo? Big tires? humm I’m sure i could find some small ones somewhere. Stroker motor? Nope no stroker here :ugh: Quik let me know when you wanna do that headsup race I’ll hook up my brakes lights and give ya a light show from the 60’ on :bigthumb: ---
