Pretty damn quick, regardless of what engine it has.

They need to run it on a true quarter mile strip to get true bragging rights and to see what times the plant down.

I'm pretty sure that is their reason for NOT going to the track. They get to run guys on the street that have no clue how fast the truck really is. Apparently it has made over $20k in street racing in the last few months...

Plus I wounder if it could pass inspection at a track? Does it have a cage and whatever else it needs to run that fast?

Yeah who knows.... if the guy was smart, he would cage it up but then again maybe he doesn't want the added weight. :dunno:

Very true. But with the power he seems to be makeing I don't think it would matter. As far I as I know the way the ZX-14 is set up it should run mid to low 9's. Maybe real high 8's :dunno:

I was thinking low 9s or high 8s my self. Most 1000s and above should be able to hit 9s stock with a good rider, and looking at him ride I would call him a good rider.

You betcha
To put things in perspective DBTBSS (world's fastest tbss) last ran a 9.0 @ 151 on a forged 408 with twin 78's I believe. I think he runs E85 now because his 90lb injectors were holding him back. :lol:
So I highly doubt that truck is running a 4.8 or a 5.3.
