There are a few "clubs" around, none that I would recommend by any stretch of the imagination though.

As for Lancaster, I don't waste my time with 1/8th mile and would rather go to NYIRP.

Well, the 3.8 is a great motor, but not all that quick stock. You're going to run about the same times as Exxx said.

There are some around the texas area twin turbo'd running 10's, with nitrous im currently only running 12.8's in the 1/4. And that will take alot of work.

But if you have any questions on what you need to do to make it a bit faster, do ask.

It's stupid simple to make them faster. Just drop a Ramjet 350 or LS block between the front wheels.
