That is cool - he could probably dip into the 12's (or faster) if he had slicks on there - or maybe some Mickey Thompson Street Radials - if they make 'em that small. Still, a 13sec ¼ mile pass is very quick.

There was a moke with massive Hoosiers at the Muster.
This is an old article, anyone heard anything more of this car?

And yeah, that is quick. Quick enough to require an ANDRA complient roll cage (for open cars).

Dude, I called the number the bloke who built it said he would not be interested in doing anything like that again and he no longer has the owners info, plus it had changed hands twice since the original owner, so I have done my home work on that part thanks.
