Default Duke goes 7.51 @ 186MPH
At this weekend’s NMCA event at Maple Grove Ronnie’s Procharged LS1 Firebird went 7.51 during pre-qualifying testing, making it the world’s fastest 10.5 tire LS1….again!

Thanks Procharger and Hughes Performance for all of your support.

What’s next? A little tuning and then…..7.30? Check us out at the Martin Michigan NSCA race in two weeks and find out.

He runs it on a BIG 33X10.5W tire, not to mention the car is also 4-linked. Congrats on the run guys, you are almost getting competitive for the class.
