I'll let you know. Once my 383 is in front of it, i'm pretty sure its just going to lay waste to the transmission and rear end...hopefully street tires will make it last a bit longer.

I would think after 3 years, your neighbors would be pretty tired of you.

The D36 should hold up fairly well with street tires. Put a set of slicks on and go to the track often and the outcome will be much different..
