    What is interesting, most of these cars are easily driven on the street. Who could believe we now have a streetable NA car that can possibly turn mid 9's.

    The red naturally aspirated Calvo car ran 143mph. This is my car and what makes that more amazing is this car is set up 100% for road racing.
    Ultra stiff 900/lb springs, TA 2.0 front aero, 335 front tires which are basically two 14" wide parachutes at the front, and the car was on Hoosier R7's with 22 heat cycles, like driving on Crisco. LOL.

    Considering the DA I would say that the 9.0L Auto car would run 9.3's-9.4's in even decent air. The auto eats some power, and the trans and rear end ratios were all setup for street driving. There is a lot left in that car the way it sat that day. I'll go on record saying that a Viper "Drag Pack" type build with that combo, with a big stall or trans brake, different 1/2/3/4 gearing, 3.73's, no carpet, totally stripped out full on drag Viper would go high 8's in the 1/4 NA and would be a package that would require very little maintenance.

    Might have to start looking for a miled up buy back Viper to do this with hmmmmmmm...........

    Cable it was great seeing your car out there, I know how much time you have spent getting that thing setup, and getting the weight down where you want it. You know that I appreciate that stuff lol. Great looking car.

    Nice runs and nice looking car. What type of 60' times were you getting. Last question, what first gear ratio does the sequential have?
