Now -- what's his Auto X look like??

Actually he won RTTHs a couple years ago. Vinny is a driver and the car is fast in every way.

I think a PT car that can drag race is a cool idea. I have PT cars, I have a drag car. Someday I would like to build something to do both.

Hope you learn something from this thread Greg.

But if I didn't challenge the notion -- it wouldn't set everyone out to prove me to be an idiot! That's why I lob grenades in threads all the time... it MAKES people think and dig... :rofl:

Frank! I know a shop that could do that for ya!

Im hoping my car will go 8's. But that'll be in "drag trim"

Im taking a prostreet car and going with some nice street wheels, adding a very nice interior, AC, heat, etc.....Goal is to have a car that i can drive anywhere. Run 8's in the 1/4 and well over 200mph in the mile. Im thinking 1300+ wheel should do that pretty well. Then maybe a gear vendors added to the Lenco :thumbsup:

I was going to mention Project Splitter as well. I believe Brett did get it into the 9's on the dragstrip(using a different set of front and rear tires) but I don't recall seeing him ever road racing or autocrossing it as it was also designed to do. If I remember correctly, I believe the weight(4100+lbs) might have kept it from being effective in road racing. Maybe the new owner made some mods. Who knows. The lumpy carbureted large displacement big block might cause some people to argue about it being 'pro-touring', but it seems like a pro-touring car to me, and it did run 9's with a tire swap.

I have 18s for my street drag car with ladder bars, doesn't mean it handles cause it has 18s.
