Nitrous at half track? Shooting for the 7's I see.

Can't wait till HIPSI91 gets his new setup all dialed in, he's shooting for the 8's.

Congrats John and keep it up! :thumb:

Wow, incredibly impressive run, and accomplishment.
Is the car still street legal in OH?

I only heard 3 shifts, are you finishing in 4th, starting in 2nd, maybe something else altogether?

He crosses the line right at 10,000rpms in 4th.
 
That car would run in the 7's if it had a big wing and euro tails... ROFL
j/k, its good to see some DSM's do things right and lay down the big numbers for the four banger "underdogs"
 
now that was nasty........ thumbs up

im at work and i had to call a co-worker over to show him proof/footage of a DSM at work.
told him a while ago, our cars can run with vettes all day.

he called BS.
when i just showed him the video he says...... "oh that might can run with a vette"....LOL
im like u crazy, that car right there....will smoke the shiznetz... out of a vette

that 2nd gear is nice....
 
Very nice John. I see that new setup and tranny is working out nice for ya. I may be stopping by to have you rebuild another tranny for me in the near future :)
 
Wow, thats awesome John.. Glad to see your still workin on the car and taking it farther. Lots of guys have come and gone in the last while, moved to different platforms, or just gave up all together. Good job sticking to your roots and with next to no sponsorship either.
 
:thumb: man that car is amazing.. i just have one question. are the gears longer then stock. cuz i dont think i can do 176 in 4th gear... and on sheps site and look at the specs of the race transmission that you sell which is like the one on you talon doesnt say anything different gearing. amazing stuff tho. Keep it up
 
Man I really hate that I didn't go to Bristol this past weekend. :( Nice run to an idol I will always have. I hope you can beat all those mega dollar factory backed freaks and gm tranny using mofo's soon. Go dsm!!! :dsm: :talon: :laser:
 
all that and he's still spinning tires into second... simply amazing. that kind of power would scare the sh!t right outa me. there would be more skid marks in my pants than on the track. your work and driving, along with the car are all stunning, congrats. :thumb: :thumb: :rocks: :rocks:
 
just one question do you push urself into the seat so you dont smack your head against it?
