Ok. I have read about 6 pages and still can't see an explination for how to win the trophy.
I have gone three years in a row and can't see what an 11.9 1/4 mile time has to do with the dragon.
Driver skill, brakes, tires, suspension, all would seem to have more to do with the dragon than 800 WHP.
and since we are talking $hit, let me just say that I could go from the TN/NC line to the bottom with a set of racing brakes/pads, 285 Kumho MX's at all 4 corners, and a good set of coilovers, with stock HP .....
...Faster than any Z, with any HP, on stock brakes/pads, drag radials, and stock suspension.
Sorry. Got caught up in the moment.
Are we talking about this?;

That car never moved. My teenager's 1989 lebaron can sit still. I thought the winner of the "Big Dawg" trophy would have to do something.
What's the 11.9 1/4 mile-requirement about?
What is the competition? Best of show?

My turn to join...
I'm not in the 11s YET (12.25) just because I'm still on 8psi (355whp), but as soon as I up the boost to 10psi, I'll "qualify". I'll take on any Turbonetics car with no nitrous...
And I'm a fat G35!

But in all seriousness, it would be cool if we could rent out a drag strip or even a small airport runway.
