Anything you can convince the county to issue a plate for.
Sounds great... until you're 75 miles away from home and have no idea where to get 110 octane for you 12:1 race motor.
I run my 12.5 race motor on the street all the time on pump gas. Why does fuel define status of the car?
Just as long as you can buy fuel at any station.. then it doesnt matter

Mine has been pretty consistently in the 10.2's on motor around 135-133 mph. Not bad for a nitrous motor and converter

I'm not sure about that this year.. to my understanding they came out with a cu ft measurement... but I'm not positive... still might come out to the 4 x 8

Lexan side windows. (unbolted and stowed in the back during hot weather drives.) Aluminum Dash Aluminum Interior Parachute Ladder Bar/ Spool 12 inches of 4 inch pipe into 4" bullet mufflers Bias ply E.T Streets. Finished last years DW, including two extended drives in hard rain. Driven to local track every time. No Wipers 10.6 to 1 440

Here is quick "Rule of thumb" that I have employed for thirty years:
#1 "I Have the Quickest, Fastest, Street Car in the World!" #2 Therefore any car slower than me may be deemed a street car. #3 All cars faster than mine are very obviously race cars! If you don't agree, refer to #1!!!
