Awsum GT said:I clocked a 8.15 in mine...
BlackStorm said:I'm sorry, but I'm just not seeing a GT with only a blower (and supporting mods) running a LOW 8 in the quarter mile!
Care to evaluate?
BlackICE said:Hell, I have a bicycle that can turn much lower than eights!
Note the lack of any units on the numbers. My bicycle can do under 8 minutes without any problems!
I think Awsum and Bony and just kidding.
For a GT to do 8s the car would have more than 1500 hp and substantial mods to the suspension and tires and maybe a wheelie bar. It doesn't matter how much power it can put out. No traction, no go. Of course at that power output a lot of things will start to break!

You can always do it just one time on the track, or many times on the road, that is until you get caught and throw in jail.bony said:another dumb ass question, if in fact a GT turns in the 10's and has no roll bar, won't the safety crew kick the car to the pits???

BTY,
I only went to the drag strip once in my life. 3 hours of waiting for a few seconds down the strip is not my idea of fun. Driving on a road course is the way to go, more track time and better suited for the GT. Now anyone have suspension treaks for road racing other than lowering it and Penske shocks? How about some adjustable sway bars?
