that sucks! i was hoping to see how the build i (kind of) had a part in would fair against the other amazing cars. so whats the ETA now?

 

well im HOPING my paycheck from may 30th will be the last one i need. so hopefully beginning of june ill be tuning it and testing. its went on alot longer then i was hoping but ive also spent a ton more then a normal 19yr old would on a car. i think the total will be at 9500 after the machine shop. then i still need 2100 dollar heads 1300 dollar clutch and an 800 dollar dyno tune so ill hav spent about 14k on this car. shoulda bought a rail lol

but we are moving now so hopefully the motor will be out this weekend then i hope the slow *** machine shop is done.

 

right after the shootout...man thats rough. 14 grand on the car...yikes! should be money well spent though. now if you go out and run mid 12's...then you totally wasted your money, haha!

 

id cry id hav to get a therapist lol its been so much because we've tried to do it right the first time and fast/reliable is not cheap lik u said in the other post.

 

just saying,
i'm 19 and live at home and work and i don't get to do my car up like this =/

 

im workin 80hr weeks at 10/hr to pay for it so my net pay twice a month is about 1200 plus some parts i hav to sell taxes and a few other things. im surprised at how much its costed and that ive actually made enough. but if it breaks after its done their wont be much funds to fix it

 

Man nice work so far... Id be happy with a 11-12 second F-Body... It be cheaper to get a Honda to run 9's wouldnt it? lol

 

my original goal was a high 11s car. but then the stock motor went down hill and i am completly addicted to speed 112mph was slow in my eyes so i want more and i decided to make it as fast as i can and hope itll satisfy me (im sure it will)

 

ordered the cut outs so the cage can be completed and the interior can go back here's the ones i got they looked the strongest

nice to see new names i felt lik it was a private thread between me and whammer

 

high 11's would be fairly easy to attain...high 10's would be something to boast about...9's is ridiculous, lol
