Bernard-
No disrespect intended, but you know nothing of Mark and his efforts
to make a statement like that. He's one of the reasons why AWE has
some of the products they sell now. Belittling someone's efforts without
even knowing the person and the events that preceded his accomplishments
is not cool.

I don't know about that Taka, I'd be willing to bet Javad could do an 11
second S4tt for $30k not including the price of the car.

As far as I know, there is nothing "special" about Javad's car or what
he did.  And that is a very good thing -- there is no magic:  mostly off
the shelf stuff, some carefully considered fabrication, the use of facts
instead of hearsay, and dogged attention to detail.

I would have to guess that Javad's biggest limitation to even more
stunning drag times is that it's not a dedicated drag car.
