Yeah that is kind of crazy. With a little more work that guy is going to be in the 8's.

I work with a guy who has a 9 second B body Mopar. He probably has $100K invested in the car and trailer. It has good parts and professionally built and it runs mid to low 9's as a door slammer. Cool car and he loves it but it is kind of freaky that some soccer mom in a Tesla could pull into the lane next to him and put him on the trailer. Just getting into the race car is a chore since you have to pull off the wheel and strap into the harness and wear a fire jacket and helmet and have some help cinching the belts and closing the swing out bar. And then he sits there and sweats in the lane waiting to move forward. But soccer mom in the next lane could be sitting there with the AC blowing.
