I am looking forward to finishing my car and taking it down the quarter
i know there are pulsars out there with very little internal work done and no nos running 11 sec times
its the same with anything and everthing in life though there is always something better

Does it really matter what shell its in, if its classed as a drag car then why even compare it to road cars. You might call it a nova but its far from one in reality. In a way. kind of!
Also its turned into abit of a "my husbands dick is bigger than your"
Well i can safely say(probably!) that my brother could beat your husband over a quarter mile and then use the same machine and beat him round a track.
