ARE's record fell today

Ronnie Duke's car won the outlaw class at the Shootout today with a new national record. His car went 8.52 @ ??? Can't remember the mph, but he did exact some revenge on Madman in the race

I think the car was weighing in a tad under 3700 lbs or 3800 lbs.

That car was dead-on consistent and launched/ran without any drama. It was so smooth and quiet going down the track that you couldn't even guess that 8s would hit the ET board. Amazing car, especially being convertible and 3700 lbs!

He did one of his bye-runs with the top down LOL!

No doubt!!! That car was flying all weekend.

I had a chance to check out the car up-close on Sunday, and was more than just impressed. Every piece on the car is a work of art!

Nice job guys!!!

I took a bunch of pics of this car. You can check them out HERE

I've never seen a car with that much attention to detail in person.
