Buschur Racing is running 8.93 in the 1/4 with their AWD shop Evo VIII and AMS is running 8.95 with their AWD shop Evo VIII. Both cars are on BOOST ALONE no nitrous. I believe they are cutting high 1.4 to low 1.5 60' times with drag radials.

Class is now out, you may leave. "

Fast cars.. what weight are those cars held to in the class they race in?

Still quite a ways from the fastest drag radial car, but I think those drag radial cars are cutting high 1.20's, and have to weigh like 3400lbs or so depending upon what motor is in them and such.. I am under the impression the record is in the 7.60's now tho..

Anyways, thanks for the lesson.. last time I saw that DSM it was going much slower.

Peace,

It's funny as hell, you see Shep lining up in what appears to be a stock looking DSM against an all out Chevy sponsored cobalt and walking that ass. I think I saw a highlight the other night while I was up late on speed that showed him running 7.8x at around 175-180. Not 100%. They eliminated the class that the car was built for and so they decided to move up instead of slowing it down. I think he lost to Gary Gardella in the factory Cobalt ride who ran a 7.6x @ 18x.
