You should run this car against Brooks' 720S, the only car that I can think of that can take him down. Until he tunes it. Great job man.

What was the DA on this run and your previous record run? Improvement was all in the first 60 feet.

Nice job. Car puts out mid 12's all day bone stock so you have made a huge improvement to stock times.

Well bring your beast down to NC and we'll go out to Rockingham Dragway (or Concord) and put a hurting on that blown domestic V8 muscle crowd!

Bone Stock. Got it dyno'd recently at my local ship (Dynojet). Best run was 445hp and 503 lb ft, which I understand it pretty good for an 08.

Will do pulley, tune and MBH long tubes next year. For now, just enjoying it.

Butt dyno says SL"s faster than my Holden which runs mid-12's all day long on street tires.
