Default Madman did it!

New record for a stock suspended 4th gen!
I just talked to Cody who is driving Madman's car at the Thunder race this weekend. He had just pulled into the pits after running an 8.756 at 156.50. He had to go so we did not get to talk much. Needless to say, he was "just a bit" happy. I asked him how the run was and he said "F***ing AWESOME!" I'm sure he will post some more information when he gets back to Houston. BTW this car uses all the stock suspension points in a stock manner with stock "looking" suspension pieces. The pieces are obviously beefed-up components.

saw that run, very impressive ... looks like they had suspension setup issues all day ... darts to the right every time out of the hole. I imagine the pucker factor is pretty high.

Madman is definitely flying! But, it isn't with a lt1 or ls1 so the ARE time is more impressive to me! Just my opinion of course.

bad1le..obviously you don't have a racecar because all of the real racecars were at the Thunder Shootout.

If you are easily impressed, go SCCA racing.

It was just my opinion, any car in the 8's is fast! Just out of curiosity...whats your fastest ls1/ls6 based engine car running?

Congrats Madman nice run.I would guess that you would have no problem with someone putting a big chev in stock style suspension f-body and running faster right??

Very nice run first off I had the pleasure of watching today since my car was not prepped and ready to race today.

I think we are comparing apples and oranges though. One car is using a stock type engine and the other is using a completely different engine and an aftermarket EFI system.

Don't take this to mean I want to discredit your run because it is fast and amazing any f-body is in the 8's with a stock style suspension. I have also heard and see that you have been very sucessful with the platform.

Congradulations on the run but lets keep this sportsman like. I'm sure ARE will be more than happy to step up to the challenge.

Do I have to drive all the way to E-town and have them not show up, or maybe Bristol and have them not show up, or maybe St. Louis and not show up, or maybe Canada and have them not show up.

Just say your scared.

ARE remains the LS1 top dog.......but nice run anyway, Madman. And I don't think you want to spend your money against them on an LS1 race.
