That takes some awesome horsepower and drive train mods to do that. Remember your local law man will give tickets for doing that in town :skep:

That's the 1st thing I looked at was the rear suspension in the pic. It looks like he's still running the independant suspension because you can see the rear leafspring :eek: .

Now that is some serious traction :yesnod: . Thanks for sharing :cool:

:iagree:
Look at the way the rear spring arches when it launches. I wonder if that's a Toms 12Bolt in there? :cool:

I noticed the front of the car. Looks completely stock (with an L88 hood) to me. You typically see more body mods on a car that can do that!! :cool: MJ
