from what lanny has told me about joes car and from what i know about the geers car....they are 2 entirely different beasts.

i dont think joes car would pass the rules allowed for the drkc (or whatever they call it now)....but it sounds like it's way more streetable than the geers car and would most definately run a quick 1/4 mile.

show/trailer queen or not...from the sounds of it...this car is going to be a whole load of "holy f#@k"!!!

Kroc did an amazing job on the longblock, This is a monster.

Post by: Lanny on April 18, 2008, 08:28:42 PM: The sound, especially at idle, is beyond words. If anybody has heard Roger Crawfords red Nova, it's pretty close! I haven't even made any boost yet. :D
