Pull the wheels! I heard through the grapevine that thing was hooking a little too well on it's last trip to Michigan, but I had no idea! What did he end up running with that thing in the NMCA/NSCA...low 12s?

I watched him go 11.89 late at night, and I believe he lifted his foot at the end. Impressive car!!!

I don't know if any of you saw the car run last year after he moved up a class and had a lot more power, but it was impressive, he brought it to our local 1/8 mile dragstrip for a test and tune session, and all I can say is WOW! He left the line, pulled the front wheels, it spun, he backed out and get back in it and still ran like 115 MPH in the 1/8, can't remember his ET, looked like a Pro Stock car doing a burnout, what a show!
