For the N/A guys doing it on small tires, or no wheelie bars weighing around 3000lbs, that is very impressive!
No matter what it is always good to see a 7sec pontiac door car!!
slowbird, come on, it takes lots of money and knowledge or good people around you to run 10seconds, then go to 9s, 8s, and 7s. We ran 7:30s with around 1000hp and with a motor that started out in the summer after the freshen up at 7:80s. It's not easy and very expensive. If it was that easy everyone would be doing it. You can buy a pretty good older Pro Stock really light chassis for what 40, 50 grand ? Buy a 1000 to 11-1200hp motor for what another 40, 50 and there you go, 7:99 !!
Good luck !! All I am saying is that you shouldn't down play running 7 seconds until you have done it and then you would NEVER down play that accomplishment. Thanks
