Rob Kinnan, Editor of Hot Rod Magazine, announced that there will be no 2009 pump gas drags. Too bad for all the competitors and the fans who loved the event. I enjoyed the 93 octane game and learning how to work with the stuff to make power, but I see no need for this any further...
We have went 7.96 backed up with a 7.95 @182 on 93 octane, and with that necessitated a ***** tune-up. This is also the fastest time recorded in America on "pump gas".
The quest for 195+mph begins now

He said it lost money every year, even though we agreed to pay 200 to 250 entry fee in February after being accepted, non-refundable if you don't show, be responsible to sell a given number of tickets, etc. The people from 2007 are STILL waiting for their jackets! Who knows when the 2008 competitors will see theirs??!! Originally Posted by badass88gt

Someone (not me) put up my 8.31 right after PGD's, then it was removed. Did'nt ever really care. Originally Posted by scottie K

All I can say is be carfeful 35XX#s & 195+mph that is not a good combo if something goes wrong. Originally Posted by DR.FORD

I'm talking with Metz today because I want to go faster as safe as possible. Don't want to put it on a diet, but that is mandatory for a 25.2. Originally Posted by DoubleAron

Jim - I was told it was only taken down by the admins because they didn't know who you were and the low post count. We've had a god number of jokesters putting BS stuff up. You are more than welcome to put that up.

Those vipers can and have gone very very fast on pump gas. There was one just a week or two ago that went faster than a 7.90 on pump.... Originally Posted by nismodave

As long as it gets driven on the street it is a street car IMO. Originally Posted by DR.FORD
