Does the Diesel Dually count?? My Nova is street legal and occasionally you might hear it running down the highway. Once in a great while I'll drive it to a cruise in or car show.

My Nova has run a best of 9.14@149 on a soft tune-up and is street legal. I don't drive it much though.
My wife has a '63 Chevy II convertible that should go high 12s when I get around to throwing the new motor together. Its our cruiser, so I won't go too nuts making it fast.
My daily driver is a '94 Z28 that hopefully will run solid 12s on a small shot of nitrous. Never had it on the track since I bought it late last fall after the tracks closed.

10.40@125, faster this year. Completely street legal except for the exhaust that dumps at the rear, all lights, turn signals, wipers, everything is there, tagged, licensed and insured. I just can't afford to drive it very far.

I drive it to the cruise nights and I've also been known to drive it 40 plus miles to the track, race it and drive it home. On drag radials it ran 9.28 at 158.39.
We all listed 1/4 mile ET's.

durring the summer either my dad or i drive our 55 belair almost everyday. it ran 13.05 last time out at 7800 foot corected elevation. its a .60 over 427, closed chamber oval port heads for looks only dual 4's. its got a th400 with a 3000 +stall vega converter and a gear venders overdrive. 4.10 gears for street and slap in 5.30's for the track. at the track we run bfg drag radials 235/60 on the street we run 295/50/15... its silly but i tried a pass with the 295's and spun the whole 1/8, but the little 235's dont spin at all. last year was my first racing and we decided to build a real drag car for this year
My car runs 13.0's on the motor and best of 11.74 at 115 with a 125 shot of nitrous. I drive it on the street alot.
