    that car looks capable of running 8's depending on how much boost and how theyre cooling that boost...
    ima die hard roots blower guy when it comes to my racing but..
    i have a little street car with a big block Chevy on Nitrous and seriously considering building a Procharged engine for it..
    i was involved with a project that started out as a serious 8.71 roots blown street car and it made decent power ..over 700 at the tire and had quite the wow factor at the cruises but the owner, seeking to make more power, had us swap a F2 procharger on it blowing thru a carb and just about doubled the HP!! i kid you not

    What about the 10.5 outlaws? Aren't they running about there? I know they're in the single digits.

    I wonder if anyone has told that guy that you can't drive a blow-through carb on the street?
