http://videos.streetfire.net/video/9...ae013b15ff.htm

The car was in Philly the night before street racing, and from what i understand they had the suspension set up for the street and didnt set it for the track for the no time nationals, hence the nasty half track wheelie and when it came down something in the steering broke.

I guess my memory is a lil messed up. I could've sworn when I was at Late Model Racecraft the car I was shown was another camaro. This was 6 months back though. Defnitely looks like one of their builds, an all black turbo fbody that is going to lay down some seriously fast et's.

I'm guessing he is the drag radial record holder atm? I know it's in the 6's just don't know fast exactly. I may be going out to the track tonight to see if LMR is there testing. The goals for this car are high I'm sure.
