Sweet Gary,
First we do the dragstrip and get the 9 second slip, then we do the Hooters thing to celebrate.

So I am assuming that you have some super secret driveline setup that is going to let you launch without spinning 1/2 way down the track or breaking something. Come on Earl you have to share!!!!!

Well I bet that I can make it to the finish and not break anything. Thats why Phil is talking smack 
Untill they make a real 19" tire for my rims "I'm on ICE". And the big brakes out back make it so

I'll buy not getting into the 9's but mid 10's on street tires should be easy, hell with 540rwhp I was able to run 11.1@127 on my 19" Michelins. I can't wait until the spring and we get a chance to wring these new setup out at the track, I have a feeling the top end of the track is going to be quite a ride with these turbos.
