This car started out life as a 5L car then I got my hands on it.
351 and a G Force T5 were in the car before it was even in my name.
Few years later it now has 460 C6 9inch with ladder bars.

Was there last year. But teck did not like me one bit.
Told to not run faster then 11.50 not to run slicks and not to have bottle in the car.
Didn't help that my buddy was told not to run faster then 11.0 and he went 8.88
