<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: SBR</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I saw that episode and they mentioned that the pro mod chevy II was a 6 second car. I figured that was a little exaggerating for TV. 7s is crazy fast especially putting that kind of car on the street. </div></div>

Don't know about the Nova, but Murillo's notch is a 6 second car. Makes somewhere in the neighborhood of 2400 horsepower to the tires. Too much car for the street, though, as you said. Last night he put half a car on Chief before the 60 but couldn't keep it hooked.

Anyway, it was a great season finale, and I loved seeing Murillo in action on the street. I realize that most here don't pay attention to Fox bodies, but that black coupe is a rolling piece of history and it was cool to see it doing what it was made to do rather sitting and gathering dust in the back of somebodies shop. Good show.

It was a good show and was very happy with the outcome. The SO guys are a little too cocky for my tastes. There's always someone out there whose faster.

Heard that awhile back. Also switched to big tires. He ought to be a serious player next season. That Cutlass, Chief's GTO and Murillo's notch are my three favorite cars that have appeared on the show.

Yeah, I like that Camaro, too. The wheels, the stance, everything about it looks right. Seems to run pretty good, too. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

The Murder Nova just went a 4.60 at 184mph in the 8th on a 275 drag radial.
