Default New NA record

Joe Overton on his first pass off the trailer just laid down some new times. This pass was still on the footbrake and he bounced the rev limiter hard on the 1-2 shift


1.27 60ft
6.03 @ 113.46 1/8
9.494 @ 142.06 1/4

I think there is low 9.40 in the car if he can make the shifts on time.

Joe's car tips the scales a tad over 3000lbs. Looks like his suspension tuning has paid off. I beleive the 1.30 sixty is his best ever.

Just off the phone with Madman. Joe that 9.36 with a 1 @ 143.17 is flying Brother!

That is the fastest N/A run on this site. I think?

I guess it's a good thing that the quick ET list hasn't been updated yet Joe Maybe they should hold off a few more weeks. Your motor should be broken in by then
