According to a few guys that were there, it has run 9's. It had a pretty elaborate rear suspension under it, and apparently, hooks really well.

Well, a 9-second time slip from that car would impress the hell outa me. I'm seeing power brakes, stock dual plane manifold, stock fuel line, battery in stock location, full exhaust, etc. Don't get me wrong, I think that car is very sharp and I am quite the fan of Fathom Green, but I've had some very fast street cars and it takes some serious equipment to produce a 9-second time slip.

I like the stance and the tires too but prefer real torque thrusts. I have a set of "D's" and wish I had never bought them. Real deal Torque Thrusts rule !

I was at the Friday night Street Legal Drags tonight, and this car was there. I caught one video before the battery light started flashing.

I think he ran it 3 times, and the last time was 9.71. We're at about 2,000 feet here, and it was quite cool last night. The leaves are turning color already.
