What do you want from us? What do you get "broke off" from at the track?

Do you want to sell it, or put money into it? I wont waste my time typing up what I would suggest to get more power if you are going to ditch the car.

How much power are you looking for, how much money do you have, and how much time/work do you want to put in?

I've got $75,000 in it already and run in the 9's at the local track. There's guys with camaros, mustangs and vets running 6's and 7's. These guys are finished and I'm only half way.... I'm really second guessing my efforts and think I should've started out with a camaro and a big noisy v8.

$75k? You're either f@cking retarded, or just have sooo much money you don't know what to do with.



However, I would be more than happy with a 9 sec Civic. I am not sure what to even suggest since with $75,000 you can buy basically anything and everything made available for the Civic IMO.

Why does it have to be faster than everybody to be content with the car?

I'd be happy with a 9 second car even if i was getting beat (by professional drag cars) more often than none. You cant match your car up to a legit drag car and expect it to win every time (granted if i had $75k into any car i'd expect to get some wins out of it).
