7.5 lb class for GT

Racin Mason · 08-30-2007, 08:45 PM

With a 400 in it, Beechy's car would have to weigh 2530 lbs w/o driver. I don't think you can get an '82 Firebird that light. My '85 Camaro can barely break 3000 with the big block in it. Perhaps they have the car wrong on the qualifying sheet.
GT/AA and BA class should be pretty fun to watch tomorrow. There are a lot of cars in both classes and a lot of guys sandbagging quite a bit.

What is up with Stinnett's MPH on that 9.30 run? Seems too fast for the ET. Did he blow the tires off or something. On his earlier runs he was in the 143's. This seems more realistic for the ET.

I am stuck on the left coast and need an Indy update, anybody know?

Dont know about that, but in the final round he did a monstorous wheel stand, and headed towards the centerline, and it looked like he got out of it. Dont know what happened to the clocks. Will try to find out. That BB car is awesome.
