Sure, after I make a shakedown run. Didn't you already run mid 9's without your nitrous? What's that thing weigh anyway?

Great...hopefully you dont have some new secrets that put you in the sub 9.40 range [Big Grin]

I ran a couple 9.60's and a best of a 9.56 last Friday on motor. I dont have any nitrous on the car yet. My feather weighs in at 2641 with me in it. [patriot]

That IS light! You'll have to tell me some of the ways you got it down that low. Does it have an interior?

Oh my goodness, it's somewhat stripped (no offense [Big Grin] ). No wonder my pig is 3450 with me.

Offense? Nonono..pride my brother [Smile] hehehe...I meant to strip this thing down. Some people put on power adders, I take out weight [patriot]

Here are some pics of the inside of the car. We all know how heavy a stock headliner is hahahaha...So here is my new one:

 -

Here is the pic of my backseat. It is not very comfortable. Luckily, I do not sit back there:

 -

I dont have any spare slicks so the spare tire area wasn't needed anymore:

 -

Other than that, the car has fiberglass doors, lexan windows, and if it doesn't help the car go fast, I took it off!

Now, your car at 3450 is damn heavy, but I gotta say it looks awesome and for that weight is haulin ass!!!! Have you made any attemps to lighten it up?????

Naah, not much in the way of lightening it up. Still has power windows, stock seats in front, steel hood, carpet, etc. I guess I wanted to keep it as stock as possible, at least body and interior wise. Maybe I'll pull the passenger seat out for the 16th. What's that 40 lbs? Gotta be good for around .01, maybe a .49 [Wink]

I am confident you will have to pay for both deals. There is probably a number sequence for the numbering of cars for TNT vs. grudge night. The difference is that TNT is one car at a time in one line whereas grudge night is side by side racing.
