Vinny has done it with his Blue 68?. Car has air ride and lifts the tires on launch. gets autocrossed regularly as well.

Tony, Nineball(I think he's on here too), went 10s with a 69 he had a few years ago. Magnacharged 6.0. It lifted the front on launch as well.

True, but 10s are damn good and Vinny's car has gone 9s on spray 10s without.

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.
