SUPER SLEEPER CAR TWIN TURBO NOVA SMASHED THE STREET CAR CLASS! RUSTY NOVA IS BACK!

[@dirka_dirka_mohammedalijihad]

The balance that rear end has is EPIC!! straight shoots like an arrow and doesn't go off track at all. I am impressed.

[@HereIsRick]

That Nova is pretty famous in the sleeper/drag/rat/Nova communities. It's a daily driver for the guy, too. Absolutely insane car.

[@rudyferrell]

He might need to paint then if he's well known, you know, to keep the element of surprise

[@NateLarsonTheNetNinja]

Daily driving that has got to be quite the commitment. I've done the daily driver race car thing at much much higher ET's, and stuff was always breaking. I eventually said enough is enough and started over with a daily and a track car. lol

[@davelowets]

@@NateLarsonTheNetNinja Its a whole different game with a turbo engine. Very Streetable and easy on the engine when you're not on it. You don't need 14:1 with twin turbos. Look at Drag Week now, cars driving 1000+ miles, pulling a trailer the whole way, running in the 5s in the quarter... All possible because of twin turbos.

Much respect brother, those launches are flawless and brutally fast. Your not only dialed in, but your machine is a work of art with unmatched performance. Keep smokin the comp buddy!

Launches straight and insane power...what a great car!

[@RickHaile]

I had a sleeper with factory paint and rust, complete factory interior, no tubs like this car! Almost all used parts and treaded tires! It ran a 12:31 at 114 m.p.h. exactly the way I drove it to work and all my driving. It was my only car at the time! Oh, I didn't mention it had 454 and 4:11 gears! It would pass anything but a gas station! Hahaaaaa!

[@82NeXus]

In this country a Nova is a Vauxhall hatchback from the 90s with bodywork so thin you can press it in and out by hand and it's so light that you can easily lift a back quarter off the ground. Every lad wanted a Nova with a 2L 16V conversion when I was young. It's a bit of a modern classic!

[@Bthast62]

I love it when something makes me involuntarily grin ear to ear 😁

[@musclebone7875]

Nova Rocket! Given' Mustangs the blues...🤣

[@neverendingmods]

Awesome sleeper Nova!! They even tried holding him at the light for like 15 seconds and he still won that round. That's a money making car.

[@bobhoffman5581]

SAW this car, at PINKS ALL OUT, Milan Dragway, Milan Michigan, in 2009. Unreal, the torque its motor made--he would do a burnout, and there was a "lag," between the time he let off the loud pedal and the tires stopped spinning. Describing it here is nothing like seeing/hearing it in person, right next to the fence! lol

[@aaronstober5041]

Damn he gets small fast

[@chemicalnbc5820]

Welp, it's well built and dailed in. I'll give it that.😅

[@johnbehneman1546]

SO BADASS!!!!! YET SO INNOCENT!!!!! Thanks for sharing.

[@tragiclife9760]

The nova was in hot rod magazine a few years ago, it has so many trick shit it’s unbelievable, notice it doesn’t look like it has a cage??? It’s IN the pillars and up behind the headliner, it was built to be the ultimate sleeper, there many videos of cruising and racing on the street, it goes low 7s when on a timed track
