well since i met some of you and you never got to see the car run here are some vids with street tires and mufflers… with 557 gears it is hard to make a full run without shutting it down around the 1/8 but u get the idea. some vids of my car: [http://videos.streetfire.net/video/Rochester-tim-nova\_138459.htm](http://videos.streetfire.net/video/Rochester-tim-nova_138459.htm) [http://videos.streetfire.net/video/rochester-tim-newland-67\_132401.htm](http://videos.streetfire.net/video/rochester-tim-newland-67_132401.htm) [http://videos.streetfire.net/video/rochester-tim-newland\_152383.htm](http://videos.streetfire.net/video/rochester-tim-newland_152383.htm) [http://videos.streetfire.net/video/rochester-tim-vs-eddie-67\_132407.htm](http://videos.streetfire.net/video/rochester-tim-vs-eddie-67_132407.htm) [http://videos.streetfire.net/video/rochester-Tim-Newland-67\_121079.htm](http://videos.streetfire.net/video/rochester-Tim-Newland-67_121079.htm) my moms car: [http://videos.streetfire.net/video/Rochester-ny-Moms-69-RS\_689028.htm](http://videos.streetfire.net/video/Rochester-ny-Moms-69-RS_689028.htm) oh and here is one of the jeep that came with me… [http://videos.streetfire.net/video/Rochester-NY-Greggs-Jeep\_689033.htm](http://videos.streetfire.net/video/Rochester-NY-Greggs-Jeep_689033.htm) ---

> [@OfficerK](#): > > So your car is built to just run the 1/8th? the truth is … it was my fathers drag car for twenty years. i took it over as a drag car about seven years ago. its still a small block, (but now its a bigger small block) its still set up for drag, with big gears etc. it works so well from a dig that i left it alone. but i added lights, mirrors, horn, wipers, mufflers , street tires and nitrous about two years ago and put it on the street. > [@IanK](#): > > Nice man, saw it at duffs last night. its no joke, good work 🙂 thank you. not a show car but it looks decent > [@Firehawk853](#): > > yikes! very cool wheelies! i love wheelies !! > [@Blown&Stroked](#): > > What’s it run in the 1/8 with the spray ? if i told you id have to race you. 😉 > [@LZ](#): > > Where is the 1/10th of a mile race track? correct. its spencer speedway on route 104. its twenty minuts from my house. not the best track but i love racing there. plus i am home twenty minutes after. ---
