The best Dyno is the drag strip, lots of racers claim all kinds of HP but when it comes to backing (not all) it up they always fall short.

If I can get the car running for Norwalk, I will run it. It is a real street car with a 6 point roll bar with a removable crossbar, full interior with a front power seats!. I would love to run some numbers with the car.

This is why i said that I cant race you as it is truly a street car with built for 1500 hp 4L80E trans, 4" driveshaft and Strange S60 with 40 spline axles on it. I Can fabricated a 10 point cage but I am not a track guy. Thanks.

I can put my engine in my wife’s car and call it a street car but that silly. I could never get on it because it wouldn’t be safe there’s a reason the drag racing sanction body’s have rules for high powered cars.....safety first.

This is what I like about the turbo cars. Lower the boost and it is just a fast street car. But then at the track, just raise the boost and now u have a real fast car. The only thing I don't have in my car is a 10 point cage. But my driveline is as bullet proof as I can get. Thanks for the concern on safety.

There’s a speed limit on the street, none on the drag strip!

Actually, it's 200 mph or you have to buy another chute!
