    Thats Steve Morris's car, can you believe that thing runs on stock suspension? Its the fastest stock suspension Caprice in the world running in the 7.50's at 190mph

    Here it is before the red was added



    and again with the red



    7.51 190mph pass

    I would guess the wind resistance on the underside would overcome any fuel savings by eliminating half of the friction caused by the wheels actually touching the ground.:rofl2:

    Try this on for size 2300hp on pump gas and it runs in the 7s at 190+ MPH...ON stock suspension and street legal drag radial tires. This dude has his chit together to make a 4200lb boat float like that down the 1320!

    I highly doubt that. But stay tuned as new parts for her car have been bought that will give an idea as to the direction we are headed with her car.

    When he runs 7.5, is that with the wife, kids in the middle row and the motherinlaw in the third seat with Spot, the family dog? That would be really impressive.

    Hey Snooter...If he could do that with MY (M-I-L)

    If he could do that with my mother-in-law then THAT would be impressive!! She could cause a F450 to be a bumper dragger...
    But, if she could be mounted on the hood, then he might be able to see the other end of the track!!!
    I like to think of her as ballast... For the TiTanic...maybe!!!
    If fact she could go on the Biggest Looser and be, one whole TEAM...
    But all things are relative...Like, she wouldn't be overweight if she were a Wright Whale, or maybe just a little :rofl2:
    No, I really love her...and there is sooooooo much to love!!!
    Glad Momma doesn't have THOSE genes!!!
