As for running within a few tenths of a legal race car - about 70 + more cubic inches, fully ported heads, high ratio pistons with trick ring lineup, and .750 + lift. And i’m guessing a serious weight reduction program on the engine, trans and whole car.

Not knocking it or any other FAST car, they are a whole lot more than what they appear.

And for the tires. Read the rule book. Not uncommon to see them running bald tires that have been treaded to chemical compounds.

The class is sort of like a good magician. But pretty cool.

Lots of tricks from the old Woodward days.

I wasn't noting the mph itself. But how close the ET is for that mph on small tires, treated, bald or not.
