I second this notion.

So your sneaking in your starlet sale I see how it is

J/K. We've gotten it to 8.4's Made a bit over 800whp We are running into other issues(chassis) at the moment. Hopefully we can get it down to low 8's or even pull a 7 out of it. The car is not a 4 link setup sits a bit tall and doesn't have much room for tires. Haven't even ran the two step yet(a bit worried) just rev and go!! We think we may be reaching the limits of the chassis since it was never meant to run this setup. No biggie though were just having fun with it for now. Haters can be haters all they want

We're not claiming nor trying for anything with this car other than getting some grins.

Sorry about that just decided to try my luck on here :-). Is this the same black starlet that goes to GLD? If it is then I heard about the good race you had against that R100! Ive only heard about a black starlet from IL being insanely fast but I dont want to be mistaken. I picked up my starlet to do a 12A ported with spray but ran into financial issues and now I cant finish my project it sucks but its life. 8.4 in a starlet is nothing compared to 8.4 in a v8. Nothing like it for people who think its just a walk in the park. Ive seen ALOT of starlet's crash because of the short wheelbase. The starlet is beautiful keep up the good *** work seeing as your the only GOOD rotary shop in the midwest!
