That thing will run an easy 9 if you can get the 60' into the 1.5s-ish range. What's your slick setup, boost on the anti-lag, and what kind of 60' are you pulling? It's all about the launch.

Man... I'd kill to see you launch that thing on bias slicks. My concern is the radial will make it hard to get the 60' down. If you somehow pull it off, it'll be a sight to see! Good luck!

Don’t know how I just now found this thread but I’m glad I did. Hopefully the parts and support will still be around in a few years for me to do a build like this. Very inspirational build bravo.

Default Question 😅

So I just recently got an SC300 for free but the bumpers are all messed up & I’m looking for new ones, are those OEM?
