IMO there's no loser in that race, those times are freakish for cars on stock tires!

I wonder when the big wigs and or small up and coming companies will approach about sponsorship to the class or individual cars that are steaming.
Likely not going to happen. This type racing falls into a very small "niche". There are really not a lot of rules and some of the ones they do have, are very subjective. Such as, what "looks stock" or especially what "sounds stock" can be totally different, depending on who is looking or listening. Not taking anything away from any of these cars, or any of the drivers, because the cars are simply amazing...but...speaking from a manufacturers point of view, sponsoring one of these cars, would really do you no good. After all, everything has to look or be stock, so what would we be selling. These cars are fast, because the owners have crazy money, time and development in them. Not something they are likely to give up for a few dollars of sposorship money.

I just got back from the track.. The cars were flying out there. First off, enough of the BS about Lane's car being "illegal". Give the guy credit. Dave D doesn't have to win it every time and I am sure he would agree. The car passed tech. He ran 9's. He has the Top ET, MPH and 60'. End of story. Special mention to the engine builder, Tony Bischoff (BES). They did their homework and it showed.  I may be biased, but the Cook kids running consistent 10.70's and 10.80's with the A12 cars was something to watch. Seeing James go 10.81 at a ridiculous 129 MPH was something. He is running a Liberty geared 833 with a $250.00 Centerforce dual friction clutch. It's the most "vanilla" of all of the FAST builds I have done and the basic engine package has been together now for 5 years and has countless passes on it. Been freshened a few times, but that's it-still has all of it's original bearings. 3,850# with NO trick parts. The kid is amazing. It was a great time. MB

I just re-read the thread. I don't see anyone who called Lane's car "illegal"..? Was a post edited, or..?
Didn't Dave run a higher MPH than Lane, or did I read that wrong too?
I "quoted" it. That means in my view it's being insinuated. With all of the references to "junk in the trunk" and bittching about a silly bumpsteer correction item. Can't just give the guy credit? 
I don't know. Dave Dudek himself told me that Lane holds all the records. Maybe I missed something, but I would have to call that the horse's mouth.

I went and re-re-read, Lane went 139.82 at one point according to a post.
Nobody is calling Lane's car ILLEGAL, I think some- myself included- would rather see a factory stock LOOKING front end on Lane's car. Nobody contested it passed tech, it's just the LOOKS in a class called "Factory Appearing".
I think I can speak for most if not all here when saying everybody is VERY impressed by Lane's performance numbers.
He passed tech, that's all that matters, to me anyways.

Congrats to Lane....Big question though, how did he pick up so much so fast? Seems like something isn't right with that picture?
Scott. You are a fine individual and though I have never met you I am sure we would get along great, but...
Take a look at your post I quoted. Pay special attention to the part that says "seems like something isn't right with that picture". Unless I am totally misreading the intention of that statement(and if I am, please forgive me), I would think ANYONE reading that would assume that you are insinuating that there was something that "isn't right" about it.
