Lights out 12 was the first outing with the Pro Line engine... No testing before the event. Exceeded his best with the Pontiac on the 4th pass. Jamie Miller tunes for him... tuned the Pontiac combo also...

the 60ft times listed seem slow -- while most turbo cars are not great leavers Mine was quicker than that with a lot less hp , so it seems they need to do some chassis tuning

He is putting the Warp motor in his other GTO, from what I read on FB. Break a Pontiac in that class, you go home. The way he went is the way all the fast guys in that class have, parts are not an issue.

I am not guessing. It is all aftermarket panels...you can ask Tommy Youman yourself.
