K so i'm still relatively new around here. 1. Why was it called "The Bucket" 2. Was it just running a big shot of nitrous with mods to make it hook? 3. What were your 1/4th times at best condition. 4. Most importantly why did you get rid of it, seems like you regret it.

It was called the Silver Bucket because I called it a bucket of bolts. It was an INCREDIBLE N/A set up on both of the last engines with juice just for fun. The mods that helped it hook progressed over the years and through each transformation. The best times were 11.01@124mph on a 150 shot and 12.03@116mph N/A. I got rid of the car because I had achieved my goal of building a competent N/A 2V and was ready to try something new.

Here's some motor pics throughout transformations and progress. I don't have any of the stock motor with CAI, TB and hidden Nitrous Oxide Systems dry kit...

This is an all N/A motor





Color matched the JLT CAI and installed a totally tricked out ZEX wet kit. This thing was so modified, but hit really hard for a ZEX kit...



And the last set up...DAMN it was pretty and intimidating...

Mitch have you ever considered contacting the buyer of the Bucket to see how shes doing and how shes holding up?
