he only got 1 shot right at the end of the day. don't know the back story but they rolled to the lanes late. Ruster took 2 passes, charger tried to but was leaking the first time. Valiant and gremy were 1 and done. Gremy looked ok, nothing obv wrong with the pass.

We had clutch issues. Bottom line, do not bring a untested car to Drag Week.

The purple '70 cuda (Randy Heinselman) and the green '71 Demon (Paul Cornman) running Super Street Big Block N/A stepped up this year...both running 9.30s N/A! They are 1 and 2 in that class after the first day.
Anyone know what combos these guys are running?

Randy has an aluminum Hemi but indont know how big, it sure picked up this year.
Paul's car is supposed to be in small block. We talked to him today and he said they are supposed to fix the class listing. He moved to a Brett Miller w9 combo this year.

Is there some sort of cube limit to still be able to run as a "small block"?

We had clutch issues. Bottom line, do not bring a untested car to Drag Week. Are you guys out then? Didn't see Joel or Darren make a pass today. Day two results show them "Out". What a bummer.  That said, day two brings the total number of "Outs" to 37 and puts the Quick 32 bump spot in the 10.90's. Drag Week has no mercy.

The purple AAR Cuda just became my favorite running 9.30's NA super street followed by the 64 0r 65 Plymouth that ran an 8.80 NA!
Wow! Go Mopar!
What tires for super street? ALL cars on the track are suppose to be on DR or slicks.. most are on drag radials

I just finished watching the day 1 replay last night.
You could clearly hear Billy's car on his run( other car wasn't in the frame)...... Sounded real strong.
The Gremlin just seemed soft out of the hole.
I'll start in on day 2 tonite.
