Super fast TA, 1/4 at 9.50!

Folks,

Happened to speak with a guy that owns a speed shop called rapid sports. Visited his web site at rapidsports.com and found a TA he built that's doing mid 9 seconds without NOS!

Web site has an awsome video of the car running the 1/4 mile. You might want to take a llok at it.

Has anyone heard of rapid sports?

I went to rapidsports.com and it turned into this site where you could buy the domain name "rapidsports.com". Is there another site? I've never heard of them until you mentioned it, and would be interested in seeing more about that mid '9's T/A.
