I just heard from one of his inlaws its at a local shop that specialises in these kinds of cars butt also that they are not super experienced and there using mostly left over parts from the shelves of the shop so I'm not as worried butt I also have seen the turbo cars on here and that was enough to worry me at first. Plus if he beats it'll just be time to add some nos to my car to make up the difference I hope. 496 stroker,Indy srs , new best 6.87 @ 98 1.46 60'

Looks like you have about a 10.90 car so I would go for it. Even if it runs low 11's you should get him. But also remember they can run in the 10's with a few more mods. I would just race him and have fun. Good luck. Ron

Looks to be a Toyota Carolla early early 70s, That paint "color" looks to be an original from them, thats indeed a cool little ride, "scary fast", but he has it set up quit well, wonder what the HP is . IF, & thats a BIG if i ever had a Jap car, it would be that one . You really can't tell how fast these cars are by there looks, here at our track we have some that are in the low-mid 10s & go over 140, so who knows, good luck though 75 Duster, 451 10.87 @ 123.58 NA 97 Z28 6sp., 12.01 @ 115 on a 100 shot 71 Swinger. 360 magnum. 12.58 @ 105 78 cutlass, 469 BBC. 12.70 @ 108 on street tires. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2kqNmMfheU
