I do have a serious question though. What kinds of tires are you using to get that power hooked to the ground?

I got BFG Drag radials 345/30/18's, but seriously there isn't much that really holds that you can use on the street when the go pedal is mashed really hard.

I would have to hit the lotto to make a trip like that.....otherwise all my money is going into the next projects for next year. When I'm done (if ever) I hope to have an even better car and more HP.

Thanks for the compliment!

Alkey Control Meth Injection should be your next mod without question Rick! We talked about this.

More hp, lower IATs, Higher octane!

And for the record, whenever I see you post up, I think of that damn crazy *** fuzzy coat!

I don't know, but if you keep this up someone may conclude that you may be jealous and Santa might drop off one for you?
