I knew they were fast, but not that fast. The Mustang James mentioned was the #1 qualifier at the Mid-Mich. NHRA Div. 3 LODRS, where he ran 10.73. It's obvious he was sandbagging by a 1/2 second at that race. Nothing personal against the driver/owner, but NHRA is letting a flawed system run rampant if they stand by and give this particular car a 10 HP hit. Now, he'll run 10.30's instead of 10.20's in E/SA.
