I am thinking of having a trophy made for the overall fastest SHO (which is me at the moment) and if anyone beats me I will mail them the trophy and it will just keep getting passed around as new people take the throne. thoughts/opinions?

edit: now I just have to take out that pesky buggy. can a 232K SHO run faster than a sand rail? stay tuned.

Do it. But make it nice. I do not want it detracting from the rest of my decor.

Without a doubt. I might have to swap out the knobbies for some street tires to keep the quickest sho powered vehicle title, but keep in mind, The Other Woman only weighs 2200 pounds. What you and others have done with full size Taurus SHO's is nothing short of amazing. My hat is off to you. Congrats.

I'd imagine those dinky SHOguns would do really well at the strip. Similar in weight and drivetrain configuration to The Other Woman.

Somedude, your car is really impressive. Can't wait to see more videos after you've sorted out all of your bugs . . .

A 3.0/3.2 Piston & Rod (If it's spun it would kick ass) welded to a thick metal chromed diamond plate. That would be a trophy I would proudly show to visitors.

lets make up something cool and make a spot to put time slips (only reccord holding time slips) in so when the next guy wins gets the trophy he can add his slip and so on.

and yes lets make it very heavy so it cannot be broken.

Well, you're going to have to go another .02 seconds faster now. Just did a 12.46 at 110. I just run out of gears so quickly in this thing. I think my top speed is only 121 mph with the 4.86 ring and pinion.

i've got some plans that should take you out or at least get me really close. I don't think I will be seeing a 110 trap but I have a lot of improvement that can be made in the first half of the 1/4. **** i've got .2 just in my 60' alone.

reading this list makes me tempted to pick up a stock ATX, put a progressive 50-250hp shot of n2o on it, and wait until it scatters....or maybe I should swap the 3.2 out and put a 3.0 in the atx car to do it with....lol

keep up the good work guys

if you ran low 13s at Knoll Gas, you should be well into the 12s on a decent track. I've made many passes at that track, and my mild bolt-on 3.0 couldn't hook up to save my life.
