Grand Prix GTP w/ pulley, 100 shot and slicks

Guy at the track was running this last 2 times i was there was in low 13s.

I wouldn't think drivetrain would last too long with this setup but i don't know much about these cars. Never got a chance to talk to him.

Is he headed for trouble or what????

The weak link is the transmission.

Those cars run great, I love mine. It has kept me from spending some money on my Z lately. The transmissions are weak though.

I want to take mine to the track soon, but the Z goes first

If you are real curious go to www.clubgp.com and read some of the forums. There are some guys with quick cars there.

Intense Performance. The Secretary of my car club, her b/f is the owner of Intense. Also has the fastest FWD 3800 series car in the world (GTP, but converted it to a turbo....low 11's right now, though should run faster this year). Also I believe was the first to run a FWD 3800 into the 11's, with his Bonneville SSESI, which was still supercharged. And he has done some insane developement on the drivetrain to get it to take the abuse, and has broken a lot of stuff on the way.
