Man, if I need anything bigger than HTA35r and nitrous I need to find a new hobby. Maybe sky diving or something but yeah like previously said a 42r has no buisness on the street and IMHO I don't think the trade off for a 37R is worth it.

I don't know if I'd go so far as to say it's THAT famous. I believe his daily driver was/is a carpet van

Dang, where did Anthony's car go to, and how come we're not hearing about either of these cars anymore even though they have different owners?

Anthony's car is not sold, in fact its coming back to AMS here soon for some checkups and upgrades Anthony has full intentions of making this car to actually compete with at the track.

Out of the 3 High Profile cars (Chris's,Anthonys,John's) I am pretty sure that the only one to ever even go down the 1/4 mile was Chris's car and was nowhere near the
times that a 900+ WHP car should have gone.
Some people just need a Dyno sheet to see how big their C@ck is and some actually build their car to see how fast it Actually is. Different strokes for different folks.

You have to remember these guys just basically took there semi stock evos shipped them to ams to the tune of 900 to almost 1100 whp..... it is going to take some serious seat time to get used to the extra 700 whp in most cases.

A lot of seat time and the right setup and tuning and im sure they could get the times down....

I would love to see anyone just jump into a 900 whp to 1000+ whp car and drive it in the 1/4 like you would with a 400 whp car.... It just doesn't happen.

Not me, not you it's almost impossible to do.

Haha, dude are you serious. Chris took it easy on the strip because he has a pretty much stock drivetrain. He drove the hell out of it on the street and raced a ton of people. I don't know for sure about the other guys, but I heard John's sees a bunch of street action too.
