Sorry guys. I did a search for Shepherd, but with a bad spelling in the title of this thread it never came up. Sorry for repost. ---

I tell ya man, that is really fucking impressive. I was excited enough to see a blown stock bodied/suspended LS1 car go 7.9s over the winter (the Ronnie Duke/Hardcore motorsports car). To see a FWD DSM do it is mindblowing. Hats off to him. ---

I stand corrected. Wow, I figured he would’ve ditched AWD since I wouldn’t expect the drivetrain to hold up under that immense power. Good stuff! ---

There is no IC, he runs off straight methanol. :lol:Radiator is in the drivers side fender well it is a small cooler and keeps the car cool on the street, yes this car is driven on the street, with methanol you dont have the same amount of heat after a run you do with gas ---
