2600lb race weight with that boat anchor of a transmission? How much do you weigh and how much did you cut out of that Fiero? I'm not doubting your times, I'd just really like to see some more details about this beast. It sounds like a pretty cool swap!
And congrats on the 10's!
EDIT: I saw the pictures looking through your directory and I must say that thing looks like a BEAST! Awesome ride man! ------------------ '88 GT- 3800 Turbo 11.367@121.03mph FOR SALE GM Tuners

I guess it depends on our definitions of "full body". Anyway this car should get into the 9s if not 8s. I've always been and continue to be impressed with fieroxs car, but if grand nationals run 8s with their big car I can't wait to see what happens here. I don't see the driveline as being a limiting factor and the potential of the engine is legendary.

Actually, I broke the trans 150ft before the finish on that run. I have not taken the pan off yet, but symptoms show the chain is the one to blame. Also, notice how far off the start line the wheelie is. The transbrake has a BIG delay releasing, 60ft is a calendar. So yes, there is potential, but the driveline is the weak spot right now. Broke axles last time.
Ooooh ouch!! That is gonna leave a mark!! haha that car is pretty damn quick and I THINK we are just seeing the beginning of it's runs... Damn GN motor what are ya gonna do.....haha peace
LOL, DH was shown up by an electric Fiero. Got bumped down to #4.
That's an awesome car, congrats on the times! I love electric dragsters, now they just gotta figure out how to store a lot more juice for 'em so we can go fast and drive far.

I have a lot more room for batteries, but I have been building to keep weight down and just use enough batteries to get the times. I have nothing in the front for example. and the rear bay is quite open as well. All the batteries are in the trunk.

Considering I am well over 500lbs heavier, and trapping almost 10mph faster (on 15psi vs my normal 25+) Im not worried.
I am content with justin and I both having the highest trap speeds.
