Now that the Arrow should hit a 8.80-8.90 pass ths year I`ve been thining of how fast I would really feel comfortable going in a go-cart like the Arrow...  ...I think 8.50`s would be OK...but any faster and I would want something longer and wider...How about everyone else 
I broke into the 8s 1 time... I'd like it to run
8.80 on a regular basis

Been in the 8's a handfull of times with the 440 on spray, completely comfortable. The Challenger is such a wide, long platform, along with a rack, that even when it gets out of the groove, I feel confident muscleing it back. 9.2's with the 512 Indy was a little different, so torquey I never was happy with the ladder bar in the first 60ft., then boring from the 1/8th to the finish.
It'll have struts, and a bottle on the 512 when it comes back out, and we'll see how far in the 8's is enough.
My brother's 100 inch wheel base AMX is a different story...low 9's in that twitchy little sucker was plenty for me.

Fast or quick? I've had the Charger at over 150 mph for many sutained miles, and more (closer to 165) in the very near future.
...no, not on populated public roads, but a closed down highway for the Silver State Classic.
11.33 @ 118.46 on motor
10.75 @ 125.35 w/ a little spray
