I am not jumping on him I am giving him the benifit of the doubt.

This guy that I work with builds racing engines and one of his clients has a car that runs in the 7's and this thing has tons of cash poored into it the heads alone costed $12,000.00 and that was for some 3 year old NHRA technology. Lets put it this way the guy has well over 100,000 dollars in the car. I just dont think that there is any way that you put the kind of cash it takes in a car to run 8's unless you are a professional racer or something. I dont know he might be a pro or maybe he just takes his drag racing very seriously.

I would love to see some pics
