I have no clue how fast those cars run... on or off the track.. But I do know they have raised the bar this year and will be much faster than last year..
But from an outsider point of view and watching the show from the comforts of my lazyboy, I'd say the top 5 racers are in the 4 second range and the bottom half is probably in the mid 5 to low 6 second range..
With my car geared for the 1/4 mile and having this rank amateur (me) tuning it, I've run 5.80's in practice runs.. and yeah, its on the track and not on the streets, but still with a little practice and a little bit of tuning, I could probably make the sled go down the street once or twice.. So I'm confident I'd be somwhere on the list, maybe not quite as high as 6th.. but somewhere..
In fact, I did offer up the Duster to a racer that was invited on the show when the OKC boys were here in Cali... He wrecked his car during test hits and I offered to let him drive the Duster in its place.. Except he had officially stepped down and gave up his spot..
I doubt any of them are in the 6 second range
I would even think the farm truck would be at least in the high 5's
I bet low 5s
You no I was talking to a co-racer yesterday bout this and he seems to think that the farm truck can't be that fast due to the wind resistant, but be did think that the truck was a lot lighter than we think(secret sh*t).

What's the difference between fake TV money, and fake youtube money??
Quicktree voted for Obama? Or is this a smear campaign??
The Show is entertaining, it's not a documentary.
It's not like I go to the Street Car Super Nationals in Las Vegas, and think "Wow, all these street cars are really fast!"
How many of you guys thought Tina's "Pro Stock Truck" would complete Drag Week?

10 minutes in you can see how they prepped the track and shortly after that rain on the windshield.don't know if was true or not..
Tony, what you see is a heavily edited version of what really happened. The question never addressed is why they ended up on Schweitzer Road on a cold Saturday night instead of Doty Road on a sunny Friday?
I live less than 30 minutes from Schweitzer and was on it last summer on my bike. The "prep" was still clearly visible in both lanes. Tuff's lane had a bunch of squiggly lines about 8" apart all the way to the 1/8 mile. Dave's side was completely covered and burnt in for about 100'. Which side do you think would hook better in the cold?
In the original video posted after the race Dave hooked and was right on Tuff until 100' or so when he spun.
Pretty sure Dave really would run Tuff down and hurt his feelings bad. But look how much press the show is getting being a total spin game. Entertaining, but just about as real as an episode of Hardcore Pawn.
I know
