That looks liek the truck that was on Passtime at Zmax - it ran pretty damn fast if I remember correctly...slicks on all fours!

BTW - Honk - badass sleeper. I always thought the dude with the Nova from Detroit had the ultimate sleeper...hid the intercoolers in the federwells, hidden cage etc...but the white wall MTs put this one over the top!

(well ok Honk if parts fall of is the winner)
But this T/A still has AC,is nice and quiet and he drives it all over the place. Last year he drove it to Bowlingreen ran it in true street and drove it back to VA. I think the whole trip was about 1600 miles.Heres a vid.

What happened to the blue Silverado 4x4 from Texas a few years back? Awesome rig. Seems like he did DragWeek.

never in a million years would I expect to see that

cherp22 · 09-01-2009, 12:53 PM

9.62/142 first time out n/a. Bench seat, full exhaust and everything there but heat/ac.

Still drive it to work occasionally

JasonQuartermile · 09-01-2009, 01:03 PM

Here's another one of the big rig.....verses a street tire Saleen in a 900 ft race (no idea why that's the distance) fast forward to 1:15 for the race.

That is Sooo badAss

Here's a pic of my old V8 Vega wagon....not too fast at high 12's at 112mph, but it did it on 205/75/14 Pep Boy radials. On the street, I could leave right next to 12 second cars with slicks.

Lightners · 09-01-2009, 01:39 PM

Cool cars guys... The Camaro in my sig<<< ran 9.40 @ 145 last year on 325s. I build a new engine over this past winter with hopes of putting it into the mid 8s (on spray) but it broke 2 rods last month
