seems like if he had that much in the mota he would have a better picture of it, however he does say you can come by and pick it up and take it to the track and run the 8.7 yourself.

This made me laugh the most.. he offered to take it to the track to let the person test it 8.7 in the 1/4 lol. 8.7 is also the slowest time its ran btw.

"Mike... I have driven the Firebird and it is extremelly fast.. 8.7 is the slowest run.. you can take it to a track close by (15miles) and run it yourself so you can be satisfied."
