137mph in the 1/8th is crazy! They could be close to 7's once they get a better cage in it. Very nice.

Exactly, and if I am not mistaken, the ams evo is a 2.3l stroker, when shep is throwing down 7's in a 2.0l. Not taking anything away from the AMS evo, had a chance to see it a week back, insane. Plus they're new set-up putting down 1100+hp.....they do some amazing work.

Re: AMS Drag evo goes 8.42@168mph

They don't have near the amount of development time in that thing that Shep has in his, that is why I think it is pretty amazing. I am not taking anything away from Shep though, his car is crazy too.

Re: AMS Drag evo goes 8.42@168mph

Yea you have a point there, shep has had a lot more time to develop. I can't wait to see what is next out of AMS.
