Scott Cook/Ed Morad
Bad GTP
00 Bonneville SSEi
Heads: INTENSE Stage 4
Cam: INTENSE Stage 4 Blower
Blower: Blowzilla 2200
60' : 1.548
1/8 mile : 6.831 @ 102.14
1/4 mile : 10.711 @ 125.71


1.548 60'
How much was left inside that car? I believe this was back before the turbo cars when Intense and ZZP were actually racing "cars" not tube dragsters. If that "car" looked anything like a ZZP "car" at that time, it had nothing left on the inside but a poly drivers seat. When I say nothing.........I mean it went to the track on a trailer and didn't even have the dash in it. . Maybe Rogue can fill us in? Either way, this is a great thread, I hope you can get it all dialed in without any more issues.

I beleave that both Badssei and Spirit of bonneville (fastest FWD sedan) had full street trim on the inside.

I may be mistaken though

Bad SSEi started out that way but in the end it was just a shell of an SSEi at around 3000 lbs. That 800 lbs consisted of interior, A/C and whatever else was not essential for going quick and fast.
Not many supercars can go 10 sec in the quarter and top out at over 200 mph and even they are bare bones and if not, cost over $250 K.

Still likin' the Hennessey Venom 1000. Balls to the wall horsepower. If you can chase down a bugatti veyron and whoop its *** in the 1 mile you can then tell everyone to **** off.

It'* a good thing you chose to build up a Bonneville, or otherwise I wouldn't have cared to follow the thread.

I build cars no one else would build, or ever pay for. That'* why I'm so damn poor! If I could just convince one Vette or Viper owner to let me have at their car, word would spread like wildfire and I'd have more than I could do!

I just ran 0-60 with a second gear start, from idle, in <5sec!

Nothing like this though:
