    Pretty sure it went 9s with two SVO T3 turbos, but went a little slower with the big single since the converter didn't like the powerband. I think he either lost interest or life got in the way at that point. That was a cool car.

        Thought I remember seeing it back in '01 in denton at the track. Ever since I've been a fan of fairmonts and upside down shorties.

            11 or 12, can't remember if it was before or after FFW in September.

            Was in 2002 now that i think about it.

              Yup, I was there for the first run with the big turbo, me AL P, BSharer, Mike and it was baffling, it was running 9's and then lost power with the single. It was a sad day when he sold that car...

                you too could be the owner of said upside down shorties.

                  I remember seeing it go a 9.9 at the Motorplex way back then, when it had the twins on it....Fun Ford weekend I think. That was before I ever met Bryan.

                        I know when we all went to dinner she was pissed. I think I have the pics of the cops asking Marty if he wanted to see Houston's finest jail cell for the nigt.
