In both vids I popped the fuel pump fuse in forth. Stepped up to a 25 amp fuse and cut a 9.9 @139 The first launch in the vids was a 1.3 60ft No longer budget friendly, upgraded block and turbocharger setup. not bad for a midpack grm concourse finisher. cheers

Dang, that first pic looks like the tire is rubbing on the fender when it squats. I can't even wrap my head around what a 1.3 60 foot feels like.

This might be the coolest thing I've seen all week.
Nine second E.T.s in an unassuming econobox make me smile.
You sir have just won at life. Hats off to you. That is a cool ride.

Very nice. Where is that track? I don't often see drag strips allow people to lean on the wall.
That thing is a weapon, I watched it do a 1/4 run from the next lane.
I almost lost sight of it.

Wow! I was so busy looking at the car I didn't notice. That place an eager attorney away from getting shut down.
That car is awesome!! Excellent work sir! I'd rather have that Mirage over a Talon/Eclipse any time any place.
Summit raceway in Norwalk, OH.
In reply to ss:
Very cool...
Now quit holding out on us and talk about the car...
Damn....That makes me want to get another one. Well done.
Are you using DSM gear to get it done or Evo Gear?
DSM vs EVO shootout? Local guy had a white EVO there, ran low 10s with a stock weight car.

Probably Buschur's yearly DSM shootout. Something tells me the westside boys are frequent customers there...right JP? Whatever happened to the motor out of that purple mirage anyhow?
There was one being put together over Muncie/Anderson way also right? I like to hear the dirty details!
i wondered what all those mitsu's were doing heading west on 20 toward the track when i was heading away from it. awesome work.

Taking their cranks out for a walk? Heh.
Freaking awesomeness.

That car runs/drives I see it out in Indy a lot. It is a Colt body. I won't quote times as I don't remember for sure, but I think it was a 10 or 11.
This seems appropriate for this thread:
