no BS - that car + Bonneville.
he has a bigger pair than me - or anybody I know.
- will be an experience like no other!! GUARANTEED!
car is very similar in size and dimensions to a VW bug - can't wait to see how the other participants react when he drives up.
Will take tons of pics and video - just hope it does not end up as a little wadded up ball of metal skimming across the salt at 160+

I'm bored already guys. Street tire, non R? Then there's no point is there? Just a bunch of spinning until 80+... kinda boring. been there done that thousands of times. Please use something sticky. Lets see these cars take off and not just make smoke going nowhere. Make the acceleration HAPPEN!

I am not going to the fest. I would prefer any tire and any fuel, what each car is what it is and should be run however.
I don't know exactly what type of race you are implying 1/4 mile, standing mile? Highway from a role?
The best would be quarter mile at a track. I like Lebanon Valley. I would love to race you on the highway, but I am not going tape it and post it online.

I will give you lengths for the weight and my bigger turbo, but you are 2.8, so 5 is all you get.
