    I Agree with Red.

    Now where is Jay Carnes so we can see what a 9 second car is

    I do believe that high 10's are possible in street trim. (10.6 up) We see PPP doing 11.2 on motor only now, what is a little spray on top.

    I would say if this street driven 2 ton Impy can run 9's than so can the LX's.

    I come from the Impala world where I would run 13.9's on motor and 12.3's on 175 shot on my old car (national record for awhile) with just exhaust/intake and juice. The SS's had terrible transmissions but the rearends could handle slicks pretty much stock.

    It'll come after tuning is locked in tight and chassis is dialed in.

    I am definetly going for this title for the Jeep with stock interior and exterior trim as well as my daily driver.

    I dont go to Irwindale every week because I'm bored.

    The Nitrous is going back on now that the bugs are worked out of the 426!

    Time to head to SAC.
