Just how much money does it take to run low 10s Ralph? My GT will hit mid-11s for ~$2200 including the price of the car. My LX..... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I have about $12 000.00 in my ride and it runs 10.91 @126 MPH with no power adder and ported factory cast iron heads. I am told I have it geared a little to high and need 4.88's and with traction given my MPH I would run closer to mid 10's but who knows? Maybe a gear swap will happen this year.
