"Of course we all hate them as they bang a nine, throw the cooler and lawn chairs in the trunk and drive home in their air conditioned comfort "
Not so much hate as "How in the world are they doing this!!!!"
I saw a guy I haven't seen in 10 or 15 years at the track at the end of last year. He was driving a Hellcat Redeye Challenger. First thing he said was "I bet you never thought you would see me driving a mopar huh? He then followed that up by saying Chevrolet doesn't make anything that runs 10.50s with just a tire change lol. Bone stock other than rear tires, 10.50, and he was one of three of them that day.
So when you start with a 10.50 the 9s aren't so far away lol
