Well about 2 weeks ago I parted out my 5th gen.
I mainly do 1/4 racing and honestly the 5th gen just doesn't cut it. Just to heavy.
Maybe I'll build an autocross car with the shell one day but until then it's been nice being apart of the community.

Going old school then?

I think Texas Speed might argue your too heavy comment as their twin turbo 5th gen is barely 3,000 pounds. However, I wish you the best of luck in your future plans.

Out of curiousity....what did you run in the quarter?

More work and money than it's worth. Started over on platform that's cheaper to build and lighter off the start. Didn't care to gut my car.

12 second car with a parachute?

At 24 lbs boost it must be a typo.

Modernmusclecar · 05-10-2020, 05:35 PM

Solid 12 second car.... haha....I see what you did there.

Going old school then? Why are you so secretive about what platform you switched too? Old Fox Body Mustang? lol!

SSammy · 05-10-2020, 07:44 PM

Can’t blame you really. I want to find a C6 LS3 Vette to build. So much easier when you start off 500 lbs lighter with the same power. Good luck with that stealth fighter build.
