well if he can run meth then e85 should be a no brainer i know plenty of street cars that drive around with e85

I don't care about the fuel prohibition. My car is a NITROUS car (always has a full bottle and a full stand alone fuel cell with 116 in it for the wet side of my nitrous kit - even on the street)... I'm with you on that one. Run whatever gas you want as far as I'm concerned. Adding race gas for safety is one thing, driving a car on SLICKS on the street is another. I'd be down to say that if you drive the damn thing on the street, even with the slicks on it, I'd love to see the car be a part of it (as long as your drive is just as far as the other competitors and race it as it comes in the gate).

I told all my honda friends that 10 years ago. They said "too heavy". Maybe in another 10 years they'll figure out that physics takes the weight advantage away at 500whp.

Everyone knows i am a ford guy, BUT, MM's car is 100% street car. i seen under it with my own eyes right here at my shop. All turbo and no NOS and it does it on 17s. It does have water meth but so does every other car running power like that on pump. If you seen it on the street you would not look twice at it. total 100% sleeper. It pains me a little to give props to a GM product

but that is a nice ass car

Wrong on the e85 part... there are 3 gas stations open to the public in VA that pump e85. One in Arlington, one in Newport News, and one in Charlottesville. The other ones (not public) are on NASA's base and two other military bases and they aren't too keen about us "commoners" using it. I looked at using it as a fuel for my car, but simply couldn't get it...
