I can respect it, but the car is never meant to be driven anything past off the trailer and down the strip. 
It is driven on the street.

Yeah as low is it is in the revs when they lose traction it could def be street driven (using only your big to on the gas pedal), just need a filter element in the foggie hole. I would say it's a no no in the rain

harold actually saw that car run at the track, and even with 4 drag radials, that car still wouldnt even hook up in 3rd gear the whole day so they just packed up, loaded it on the trailer, and went home.

LOL....the car spun the tires on the dyno way back when it had 808 HP.  Then they add 180 Hp.
