For the drag pack, I run gray 18"x5" Forgestar F14, w/Hoosier biasply front skinnies and 17"x10.5" F14 rears wrapped in 28x11.5" Hoosier QTPs.

I have owned this car since early 2020. It was 100% powertrain stock to the stock air filter and stock tune. It only had a Roush axleback exhaust. It ran a best of 12.9@109mph with the 20" wheels and all seasons. It was a nice slow weekend car that has slowly morphed into a wild street car but still retaining ALL creature comforts including A/C, full exhaust with mufflers, fully licensed and insured. The last time I weighed it with the drag pack and a full tank of gas (Jan 2026) it was 3900lbs with me in it. I built the car in my garage and do all the tuning as well. The car made 1067whp/xxxwtq on a Dynojet in December 2025. This car runs on 100% pump E85. Nothing fancy from a drum. I pride in doing everything on this car myself. It has been a great learning experience.

Wishlist: Corbeau seats, get axle tubes welded. Thanks for reading.

Best Performance at 3900lb race weight: (All below done at a dragstrip)
1/4 mile: 10.21@153mph
60-130mph=4.93s (with 2-3 & 3-4 shifts, not ideal)
100-150mph=4.30s (with a 3-4 shift)
1068whp (Dec 2025)
