i was driving a friends nova that pulls 3 to 4 foot wheel stands every time . it is quite a rush to let go of the trans brake button and look at the lights , one of the best addrelin rush's you will ever get!

A big disscussion went on in the Great new pics thread with some good input, I let it go after the F/SA camaro was posted. It takes a ton of money to run in any NHRA division, and the right combo will produce outstanding results also. The wheelstanding F/SA Camaro is in the low 9 second range with a 305. It's all in the money. A good Heads Up car can run those numbers for 1/3 the cost of a NHRA stock class racer. IMO
