He was like my goodness and says really whats that jet noise. I was like my twin turbo kit. So he starts smiling and says he loves the sound. So I take him on the freeway punch it. Then he says man i'm stuck to the seat and smiles and says you have surpassed me in hot rods my old school car was never this fast. Then says can he drive it to work so he can show his friends LOL.

I dig how you want to get your dad involved. I wish mine were still around. My dad, who was also my boss for many years, worked with me at Paxton. I built a 1990 Mustang that we drag raced in the Pro 5.0 shoots outs. So I get my dad to the track and ask him if he wants to go for a ride. Back then the cars had to have a "working" passenger seat - (today it is just a seat with a huge intercooler in the way). So the car does this huge wheelie and bends the wheelie bars up so the car is hanging the front end like 3 feet in the air for at least 200 feet. The car ran 8.71 at 154 and all my dad could say was why does the front end go so high?
