Those are very impressive numbers. I watched the video and it launches very well. Did you do that on 245 street tires or did you get some slicks? I see a turbo in my future.

I picked up a set of rx7 FD wheels and put Mickey Thompson 255/50-16 drag radials on them. They work very well. Those wheels are lighter than most any aftermarket wheel I found.

I saw a really crappy video that someone took of your car this morning. https://www.v8miata.net/attachment.p...ine=1441629794

Is it just me, or did anyone else try and hit the "play" button up above?! I wanted to see that thing take off!!!

If youre on the Facebooks its on the Speed Society page. I gotta give it to Hbwiggins, that thing shot out of the hole with a quickness. Great car!

Went to LS Fest this weekend. It was a lot of fun! Made a few drag strip passes. Fastest one was a 9.31 at 147mph. Not the best video but here it is:

I was hoping you had a build thread on here. Saw you make a pass Saturday morning up at LSFest! Car is super clean. :appl: The trip to Bowling Green gave me some much needed motivation to get my pile on the road this winter.

Chattanooga isn't far! Let me know if you need any help!

Saw your car featured by bigkleib34 on YouTube today! Your car is really well behaved on the track at those insane speeds. Congrats on the build and the new publicity;)
