I think these pics may be a problem for 56k, but i don't care, get broadband bitches
Instead of beeing unpolite and then open 4 topics when you can open just one, just learn to save pictures in lower quality...You could easily have them under 300 kb (each).. while yours are always 450+ I think

I can't believe they left out the Lingenfelter corvette 427 tt. That would be right up there (faster even) than that Viper. As for all the drag cars: who cares? Anyone can build a car that goes fast in the quater. The real task comes when you want a car that goes that fast and it needs to be street legal. I suppose you can do whatever you want if you have enough money, but street legal cars are always more impressive to me.

You make it sound like making a drag car is so easy. I mean if you have enough money to pay someone to do it, that is a different story. But it took me and my dad 3 months just to do an engine swap, transmission swap, suspension work, and a llittle paint work on our 69 Mach 1 Mustang. And it was all day and everyday during those 3 months, not just the weekends or something. Of course it is hard to make a street legal car go fast in the 1/4 but it is harder to make a drag car go even faster.
