Indy Test Session

Superfan1 · 08-22-2018, 02:13 PM

A few minutes ago, a good friend who is at the Indy test session texted me that Leah Pritchett ran 7.988@171.58 in her Factory Stock Showdown Dragpak. I realize that it is only a test session, but if that is any indication of what the numbers will be next week; I can hardly wait to get to Indy!

A fast hemi car goes 137 in the 8th. These things must really kick when they ramp the timing in down track. AMAZING

What's a fast hemi ET/mph at say 1000 feet

That's amazing ! How are they able to get these to crack in the 7 second Zone didn't think they could be pushed that hard ?

Spyfish, put a hair dryer on your hemi and see how fast you could go on the back end.

Big congrats to Kevin Helms; one heck of a racer, tuner, and champion. Bet he’d be the first to say “Turk was first”
