That is too crazy. I thought 10.99s on a stock RB30 was crazy, now we're going to see 9s!

Hey Ferrett, Congrats again on your awesome time. Hey, last year you were looking for 90/10 shockies. Are these what you had in the Berlina on the 10.12 run? Do you run aftermarket head bolts/studs or aftermarket head gasket? Is your car streetable (well mannered and responsive). Whats the boost like to come on without transbrake and driving on the street? Do you trailer your car to the drags? Do you use straight pump ULP?

zzzzzippy indeed! Dunno if it's been said already.. but it's obviously not 100% 98ron petrol is it, or is it a mix/race fuel? nearly a 9 and here I am spending a billion dollars and I'm only aiming for 9-10s :/ damn you!
