If those guys get in SS/IA or SS/HA we will run, I have my car to have fun and I know what my capabilities are so I don't get uptight. Heck I am in Florida, if you don't know one of the fastest if not fastest at sea level non factored SS/IA cars is here and it belongs to Rick Brewer. I know I can't out run him so I don't worry about it, he's go me covered by a second.
My whole point is we all need to run our cars and not worry about the guy in the other lane, if he has to put a number on the window make him run his number.

Brewer is fast, but I really doubt he is the fastest SS/HA or SS/IA.

THERE ISN'T ONE! and you shouldn't get a freebie record because you are at a factored track.

But you think it should work the other way too right...no freebies when the air is an actual -1000-1500 or whatever it could turn out too...or?

Brewer's car can run 9.60's and 9.70's anywhere in SS/IA. Find a faster sea level SS/IA car. Case in point, he went 9.74 at Gainesville this year, who's been faster? The Fogle's have been 9.60's in SS/HA with their Camaro also.

The Worner's SS/IA ran 9.64 at Belle Rose in SS/IA this year.

Angelo DiTocco runs pretty well.

It amazes me they can get those cars light enough to run H.

Ed, thats because Ang cant get his car light enough to run HA, when he runs HA, he is ususally heavy for IA.

[stefan callender]

There are others in the class that are fast, dont forget about the Bohanans.

I was wondering where I could take out over 300 more lbs. I can't quite get mine light enough for the top of I, for sure not H.

Thanks, Ed

From what I've been told, the Automatic cars have C4 's in them. Near impossible to use a fluid actuated
lock up converter. If anybody is using a centrifical type lock up,..well that's been illegal for decades.

What about the current SS/IA record holder? If you don't think he's fast at sea level your very mistaken! Ya.. ya... he set the record in Boise, there was a certain SS/AA car that set the record there in 2001 then came to Mission a few weeks later and ran quicker.
