28 Pantera at Shogren.....
#91
2 kit Nitrous small block 434". Below is a link to an 1/8th mile pass. Best ET I ran it to was 8.37 @ 164.9 in the 1/4. We don't do much 1/4mi stuff down here......all 1/8th. It was a fun car and I enjoyed running it. Not sure what Scott is doing with it. He told me he took it to the track once, but ended up not running it. It's listed for sale on his website. Motor is 100% fresh. It will make someone a nice toy.

Oh NO !!! Albert just said the "A" word again
Cool car & cool boat If I was looking again ( which
believe it or not I am not ) & it was in my $$ range I would
scoop it up without much thought. Do a bit of reconfiguring in the interior & if the motor needed attention I would give it some, but if it indeed does have a large pully on it causing it to only make 3lbs. Just my .02 cents Either way it is alot of boat & Well worth the $$$

And yes, street racing is pretty much done around here. Too much to lose in TX these days. They'll take your car.....no questions asked and you won't get it back.

Not yet , I pretty much put off working on it untill this fall & winter , I have another project at the shop that has been getting my spare time & I got to run the pantera for a good part of the summer & I see no need to try to rush the Saber to try to make it in the water this year. Although it would be nice I just hate to rushing projects if I don't have to.

I figured it would have to be in the 1.20's with that kind of ET & MPH. Yeah & regaurdless street racing with 8 second cars is not the brightest thing anyways. There is just Way too much that can happen to make it unsafe especially to all the idiots standing right on the edge of the road @ the end of the 1/8th not to mention a 1/4. I realize more now just how stupid it was now that I am a bit older & have 2 small children.

NOT RYING TO BUST ANYONES BUBBLE , but Iown the black 28, and it has a 540 tunnel ram with 710 hp, that run mid 80s with a 27 pitch prop at 5700 rpm, I had a 860hp blower motor in it and then spun 32p prop at 6300rpm and the best I saw out of it in salt water was 97mph, , 570hp is low hp even at 3lbs of boost, for a 540 with an 871 blower ,it should put up that much with out a blower, Pier57 used to have that boat, dont know anything about it , looks great, when Peir 57 had it they wanted 90,000 for it, if it is the same boat.

I'm pretty sure that it is the same boat. Heck, I even think Lake Cumberland had it for sale for a while.

Yup this boat has definitly made the rounds. that kind of says something right there.I'm sure Scotts a nice guy but I believe its priced accordingly. I don't remember seeing him in a red suit. We'll have to see on who's lot this boat shows up in next. If team shogren thought they could piece it out for more they would have done it already. But that was a good reply for a boat with some questionable issues. 8 deals fell through due to financing? I though I remember seeing a ad saying no credit no problem? Seems like somebody's failing to mention some details.
