.................a Red Corvette with large PH decals on it, I was there in my 300C SRT8 along with quite a few other 300C's.

Did a couple of runs producing low 13's (not in the 2nd clip though, engine was rather warm at that point!)

I went to the truck show last weekend as part of the trackday showcase with the Rebel crew.

Managed an easy 12.6 in full street legal settings and low boost.
Still spinning the rears even with carfull launch from the start.
Once I got some traction made up for it towards the traps.
