Being a Turbo car, they tend to launch on the soft side compared to raw horsepower or nitrous. I 'd like to know, other than welding the head to the block, how does one contain 59 lbs. of boost?

------You can see how softly he leaves. It makes the ET even more unbelievable. His 60ft. looks like it stank, but, whoa momma after that 1st 60 I dont know how he held onto the wheel. Must have superglued his one hand to the wheel and the other to the shifter!!!..........Bill S
