Shouldn't that be Evan Smith went 10.70@133+ with Hammer's car?

He was the one who ran the time right?

I heard 3 different drivers ran sub 11sec runs with the car and none could geet better then a 1.8 60ft..so that says it will go much quicker..
By the way...
Who or what is an EVAN SMITH???:shrug:

Evan Smith = MM&FF Technical Editor

Here is a direct quote from Jim@JDM:

Hammer is away right now for his job so we have his car here. We installed our long tube headers, high flow cats, and a new clutch for test purposes. The new clutch worked real well...actually too well. It's gonna take some seat time to get use to it. So, we had a magazine test session at Englishtown today and I had a talk Hammer and he said "sure", take my car. That's what he built it for anyway. The new clutch puts the power to the ground instantly which left us with some bad 60 ft. times. Muscle Mustangs technical editor Evan Smith drove the car to its best 60ft and completed the 1/4 mile at over 133 MPH. We will let Hammer inform you of the ET.
