True street really is true street cars...

This guy drove 1800 miles in a car that runs 8.40's in the 1/4 to go to a drag race event and ended up driving home in the snow on drag radials.

either where he lives is a perpetual down hill, or thats a lie, because theres no way your driving home in the snow on drag radials, most cars wont move from a complete stop even on straight high performance summers in the snow.

Plenty of guys going faster than that on radials. I call bull**** on driving the car in the snow. I can barely drive mine with the radials in the rain.

Congrats man. But my opinion on street car is a street legal, with AC, full Interior, good sounds. Kind of the car you can drive daily and can hold some beating. But I'm sure this car is atleast half of that. Congrats
