But a streetable car in the low 9's is that much cooler ;)

Good question lol. The only thing with DR's is they will hook too hard, the softer sidewall of the bias ply would act as a cushion for the drivetrain. We want this car to be the fastest car on DSMlink (sub 9.5, and yes we are competing against some tube chassis mirage lol) and we would also like it to turn some heads at the shootout. With Buschur, AMS, and Magnus running high 8's that isn't going to be the easiest thing to accomplish...

Tube chassis or not it comes down to weight.
Have you weighed that car yet? I would be very curious to see what it is down to.

Nope, we still haven't weighed it, lol.

It can't be that heavy.......

It should get slightly lighter soon, but some more stuff will be going into it as well.

With another pass I think it would have been there on those tires.

Boost would have gone up due to no knock and I could see it doing a 9.9999999@148.1mph, lol.
