them 35R are not good for drag racing , that is why he cant ran faster than 10.0. Some people with fp black or red with 550whp already ran high 9s.

what are you talking about 35r 37r 40r etc are perfect for dragging lol you got it backwards they are not good for autox and road course because they take forever to spool. You are forgetting a monster detail most cars that ran 9s are gutted tin cans . Mellon is attempting to do it in a full weight car with everything in there all creature comforts thats what makes it special and hard to do. once he gets his new 10:1 motor D2 coilovers and tires im thinking its going to be a different story for sure

i think Dave Buschur full weight white evo with fp red or black already ran high 9s. And it's also his daily driver. Lots of evo from AWDmotorsport in florida already ran high 9s with fpblack and red . Check it out on Youtube.

They got the crank ordered, and should be another week and a half before they get everything i think because the rods/pistons were taking forever to ship out. thats all i know for sure.

MKC wants to have the car done for the MWE birthday bash, which is the 24/25 of July.

it's the junk the previous owner had on the car. I kept adding power and neglected the suspension so when I went to the track the car was bouncing like a rubber ball
