Drag Radial Record Broken
Richie Stine went 7.57 @ 189 at legal weight. For the record Stine only has a 632 with a single carb.
Shane Stack went 7.45 @ 193 with a single 106mm turbo equipped small block g body Monte Carlo. Shannon Wren went 7.41 @ 200 (the first radial car to hit 200 and not wreck through the finish line) with his twin turbo SN95 Mustang. Vids of Stine and Wren... http://videos.streetfire.net/video/9...5300ac22d2.htm http://videos.streetfire.net/video/2...53001f6cde.htm Crazy

Re: Drag Radial Record Broken
Dumb question, kwhizz, but about the weight deal...they do it on a lb per cube deal, with huffer cars getting hit harder I assume? Or is there just a baseline weight limit...??

Re: Drag Radial Record Broken
WOW! That is incredible to me. I raced in Drag Radial several years ago and even managed to finish in the points at the end of the year. That was when BF Goodrich made the only Drag Radial. I hear that the Mickey Radial is far superior but those times they're turning now are unbelievable. Would love to get back in it, but I have realized that racing is really just a contest of who can spend the most money. I work a job every day and won't get into a spending contest. Older and wiser....I hope!

Re: Drag Radial Record Broken
Ha, funny stuff, Doug. Thanks again, that was some spicy beef jerky and I had to holler at Milchak to pull over to the next gas station to grab a gatorade! Paid for it the next morning also but we'll keep this clean and up to your imagination!
