Default fastest FWD in Canada

A buddy of mine we supply cams to, drove his Shelby Charger to a 8.61 at 168 mph last weekend at Atco, NJ in the NOPI event there. What more amazing is he only running 30 psi and NO nitrous, to the 40-50 psi rest of the field. This is on a stock valved head, stock valve train w/ light porting and hydraulic OEM lifters.

Currently he is the fastest FWD in Canada, and 4th in points, he's hoping to be at 35 psi in the next 3 races, so he's got lotta more...

There is and it's when my friend with the WRX and I plan to run at Norwalk so we can finally get decent times that should reflect our cars' performance instead of the crappy track. It's the NDRA NOPI World Finals for the XBOX Cup the weekend of october 14-16.

Cool, sounds like he is running a bit higher compression ratio than the others.
Your car looks like it's doing well also, I have been collecting some old turbo cars to try and build one good one out of it. I wan't to make an 11 sec street ride if possible and just adjust the boost as needed.
Thanks for the cool post.

Cool! A couple friends on mine and myself will be there and running, at least a few passes. The one has the '02 WRX (which will have a full 3" turbo back exhaust without any catalytic converters within the next week or so) and the other has an '03 Tiburon GT with an Injen CAI and Evo cat-back exhaust.
