So once you break into the 10's, how much will it cost to make the car track legal again? Welding a roll cage in the car along with the other mods needed seem like alot of hassle for just tickling the 10's/ bragging rights. YOu plan on making it a full on drag car at that point?

Where I live you dont need a roll cage, fire system ect. to run your car If you run 10's. I only do track events and "Redline" events and they don't require a roll bar either. I am however going to install one just for safety reasons.

Update!

Well you guys got me all scared with the "Your soo lucky you didn't get a piece go threw your motor" talk.
So I pulled off the plenum today to make sure everything is clear and nothing is in there.

You would figure if there was it 1 would've phuc the motor or 2 gone threw it.
Well look what I found?? I should have bought a lottery ticket on Sunday
























Meth keeps the valves clean!
