Re: New SS/AH record 8.22
I don't mean to take anything away from Gary Wolkwitz; but Charlie Westcott Jr. set the SS/AH record at 8.22@162+ back in November of 2010 at South Georgia Motorsports Park. The NHRA retired the record after 2 years. Here is a link to a video of the run:

FWIW, I'd bet that the 2 mph and more than a few thousanths in ET can be attributed to better aerodynamics on the 'Cuda. Incredible nonetheless.

Re: New SS/AH record 8.22
We will be testing RMRE latest version on Saturday at Evadale Texas before the Tim Hebert race at Belle Rose. It is up from Indy where it was No. 1 Qual on Wed. before I broke it. David, Bruce, Brad/Darien and the gang have really worked hard on this project. We will know at the Cajuns!!!
CALM THE QUAKE!!!! |
