I've got a feeling it's never seen a track, I don't see a roll cage and that body kit wouldn't last long on a course unless he's got one stiff suspension set up. Sweet car either way. Unless of course you guys meant a drag strip. I would also like to see those numbers.

Meh didn't sound like that really. Most tracks(drag strips) require a so many point cage depending on your 1/4 time anyways. So if its a 10.X second car you're required to have a 6 point roll cage etc.

Love how the OP gives us this teaser and then disappears though. At this rate we might have to require a peanut butter / spoon pic with this "car"

Thanks for the kind words everyone, unfortunately, I don't have any quarter mile times for you, I always told myself I would track it when I feel it's done.... well everytime I feel like It's close I find more to do. I bought the car as a N/A auto, since then I have swaped the motor, auto to 5spd conversion, pulled the 4.30 gear out for a 3.9 (couldn't get traction even with the 285's). I've swaped all of the suspension, interior and just about everything else you can think of. Then only other things I'm really looking to do is a 1pc driveshaft, upgrade the entire braking system, urathane bushings, and get a standalone and I should be good to go. Without the supercharger running on 18lbs I was around 420hp, no numbers on the new setup since I just finished the twincharge setup this spring, working on the tuning right now.

I would like to get a run in on a road course like Putnam or Mid-Ohio if I got the chance, just never had the time to do it! Road courses have always interested me more than the 1/4

Its not Twin Turbo'd. It has two power adders.

The Turbo and a Roots type supercharger. Pretty nifty.
