Re: who is the fastest
Have seen Donnie Pedan at Houston run a 9.903 @ 192 mph, also have seen Michael Manners in Super Comp (with a blown alcohol dragster with a stop) go 8.91 @ 223 mph

Re: who is the fastest
Forgot to add Jeff Jackson out I think in Division 7 he has a nice fastback mustang with a BBF he sometimes runs S/G but also mostly runs SST. His car runs deep in the 7's and he has run 10.90 @ close to 170 before.
Put a throttle stop on my Camaro and tried to run SST but it is setup for nitrous, have one 10.91 at 164 mph, but the car was just to inconsistent. Runs 8.60's on motor at 3200 lbs, wrong cam and converter to be consistent. Alan Claunch done here in Div 4 runs his car in SG and he activates his throttle stop on the topend runs 9.90 anywhere from 108-112 mph..LOL oh and he has won some races doing this! |

Re: who is the fastest
Well, Eddie I hope I can ask you this question, so if I have to run you I will be not intimidated as much, by your finish line MPH. I will expect you to come whizzing by at the finish, but are you a BS'er... Now dont get me wrong but bs'er stands for brake stomper. Just want to know, if you do this sort of thing? If you don't want to answer for strategy, that is fine, but I am thinking about being a BS'er myself. Never have, but thinking about it.
Your friend Steve Willie Williams, The Probe. I ask you cause I don't think you are a bs'er. |

Thats us in D-1...been doing it for around 10 years now! 112 to 121mph depending on the air and set-up. Some people thinks it silly and others hate it....just ask Joe Eckel as he calls us the "Most feared Super Gas Car in D-1" and hates running us. |

Re: who is the fastest
Just my opinion I like the idea of reversing when the TS comes on, it is very difficult for the guy chasing you down to get slowed down enough and for him to judge the finish line.
Unfornately last year someone crashed either in Dallas or OK against Claunch. Again just my opinion and you guys up in D1 figured it out along time ago...LOL |

Re: who is the fastest
I hear they dont give out Wally's for being the fastest in the class of course no one told me til it was too late
FWIW I can go 160+ but the car is very hard to dial and not consistent at all. I am now mid 150's go 8.0 at sea level at 2900ish. Went 152-3 in Vegas this weekend in TT's Last edited by sst7250; 03-29-2011 at 10:55 PM. |
