Default Drag race

I was looking through videos on YouTube tonight with some free time I never have. I found some video's of Nacho's runs and the atomic Z, but I came across one that was posted by mrcrowly9, just curious who owns car or was racing the car, I am trying to come up with a good setup and tire combo for my Z, thanks and here is link to video.

Good set up? That car looks more than the standard porting and exhaust ...That looks like some serious down low power on that car...Probably a big cube ZR-1, which means open the wallet very wide.....Nice video...

No idea what happened to Crowley. There was a hurricane (Katrina?), I'm not sure anyone heard from him after that; his shop was hit hard. It's possible the car was totaled due to flooding. However, I seem to remember this car with some derivative of a bright green engine?!?!

Damn...that drive train is taking a HIT on clutch-out.

I was going to say that he'd go 10.3's if he'd shift the thing...then I saw this, from the other thread...
Naturally Aspirated shifting like a damn maw maw!

From this point forward the car will get a new Hogan's intake, 4.11 gears, and lean it out alittle more. Notice in all the video's that I'm hitting fourth gear right before the traps. With this said I feel the car will be capable of consistent 10.30's
