Fastest street car in America

This is officially the fastest street car in America. Drove close to 1000 miles, trailer in tow, to several tracks, and with a little tuning for the track, ripped off a couple 7.64s. This is crazy. And Im in love. Can anyone loan me $115k?

Re: Fastest street car in America

I saw this car in person at the P.R.I. show about a month ago and it was INSANE!!!!! Definetly lives up to all the pictures and stats in person!!! I think $100k for that car and its perf. numbers and history is a deal, somebody will jump all over this!!! I think it's too cheap, but thats just my opinion

That is a statement...Yes but took what the BBC block couldn't handle and made better.They do the same with the 302 blocks from ford.They like to open like zipper when you make 500whp on them..

It would be hard to run those numbers with any factory parts. But thats like saying your favorite prostock car has a chevy/ford/dodge engine. No, they are a DRCE engine, designed by The Professor, with different head bolt patterns to distinguish.

Its also on a tube chassis, but its still a 67 camaro.
