At the local 1/8th mile strip pitting for my sister-in-law's dragster and we were parked in the pits next to this guy. Very cool guy. The pits were too tight to take a pic there but I got one while we were in the staging lanes.

Pretty consistent 4.93's

He has gone as low as 4.5x's but tuned it down for consistency.

Whats under the hood??

Devilfish · 06-21-2012, 07:46 PM

A lot of $$$. Jk. Not sure. It's a top sportsman IHRA car so something within their rules.

FRSTR90 · 06-21-2012, 07:51 PM

Aint that the truth!! Those are some good times! At my local 1/8 mile track, very few cars are in the 5's and the majority of those are the rail cars.. I see a lot of SBC/BBC.. I'm wondering if this guy is running an LSX engine..

ParisTNDude · 06-21-2012, 07:55 PM

Nice, very nice...it looks just like my old l99.....hmmm, maybe it is?

I am wondering if it is the joy of racing, or the scourge of that woman in the pic that makes him go so fast.....
