We went to Firebird and raced in a PSCA race this last weekend. Only class rule was the tire size it had to be a off the shelf DOT street radial tire and could'nt be any bigger than a 255-60.
We won on a hole shot he went 9:62 @146 and I went 9:87@142.
Who ever thought you could run 9's on a real street tire!!!!

Well done.
When people ask me if they should go turbo or V8 I think of cars like yours and say BOTH.
