Best Quarter Mile Drag Race Time, after driving it to the track, with street tires, and with the baffles still in the zoomie headers: 11.74 seconds, 119 miles per hour.

Recently added: Mickey Thompson Drag racing radial rear tires, and Water/Methanol injection system. Begins injection at 2 lbs. of boost, and progressively increases volume of methanol mixture until all in at 7 lbs. of boost. I believe it should now run in the low 11’s or high 10’s.

Car has a 6 point roll bar NHRA legal to 11.00 second ¼ mile time, and a 5 point racing harness good until June 2020.

Also included is an almost new set of Mickey Thompson Rear tires, 32X22RX15 (22 inches wide, seen in several photos), and a set of ceramic coated street headers which are a little quieter than the zoomies.

I have never been pulled over by the police while driving this car on the street.
