    Ive got to comment on the trailer thing,Street cars are driven, trailer cars are trailered,If you scared you gonna break you didnt build it strong enough. This has always been a pet peeve of mine, " my car is a street car, I just dont drive it because" A excuse is the easiest thing in the world to find. It takes a whole lot more to drive a car 200 miles and race it then drive it home. Dont be scared people get her out and Drive.

    I may some day build a track only car. But it will be in the 7s or faster and even then if I can pull it off as streetable I will

    I am still in the air what motor I am throwing together this go around. But my car will run mid 11s NA or faster and 10s with a small shot of sauce. I will still drive it anywhere anytime(weathering permitting)

    Just my out look on things and means nothing to anybody else.

    My thoughts exactly.Of course I'm not all that fast.Drove my green 4dr 106 miles to Bristol,sprayed it all weekend(and drove it to & from the hotel/out to eat,etc)ran 12.40s and drove it home.Oh wait,I did haul my M&Hs in the trunk along with my toolbox & luggage,no use in wearing out my so called "street" tires.3.55s & a cheapy 3500 stall meant around 3000 rpm cruising at 60 mph.It was a 55 zone,so I kept up with traffic just fine.(y)
