I was referring to the actual video of making its 8.9 pass, not an article. I'm already 15K deep into the car, what's another 15K+? Money isn't the issue as I stated before, it's shutting stuck up LS retards up when I fly by them in my cute little V6 monster. I'm sick of all the retards putting me and my V6 down. It's not about money, it's about respect. And that, no one shows me. So I'll show them with my rear bumper instead.

She's doing something different that not alot of people would do, and that is pretty damn cool. I've got tons of respect for her and this project. Everyone can mod an LS and go fast. But taking the time and patience to make the 3800 go fastER is badass.

No not me personally. I wasn't trying to argue with you, just saying I have respect for what she's doing. I don't even want to put money in my Z right now lol

DK, did you not put a lot of money into your SS? Are you not putting money into your 79 and new 02? It's the same concept. Just my project takes more time, thinking, ingenuity, problem solving, and possibly a little bit more money in the end because of everything I want done to her. I want to be different. You wouldn't expect a cute little black and pink V6 with a chick driving it to shake loose one hell of a monster. I don't plan on making her the quickest 6 out there, but she's going to be faster than a lot of V8s hands down. I already have the advantage over Case's 383 right now. We're about dead even at this point. If that gives you an idea of where Sof is for the money spent at this point. But he also has a lot more work to do on the car. Cindy is basically just up and running now.
