**LMR Brings home the $$ to Texas**

Went to Memphis this past weekend for battle of the states Drag Radial Race. We entered the 275 drag radial vs 28" slick class. We had a great weekend taking out the biggest names in the drag radial world to advance to the final where we met yet another Big block with twin 94mm turbos. Final was a pretty good race, looks like we won by 1 1/2-2 car lengths. Not sure what the stock suspension LS drag radial record is but I think we might be close or even have it while running on the smaller 275 tire at 3200lbs. Will upload some videos to post for you guys to view later in the week.

No, we went a little quicker than that.

What was Carlyse Corvette 1/8 mile record on a 315 radial?

Thanks for all the nice words guys. We definitely have this 3200 pig flying with the 275s on it. I love this tire!

I think he is referring to the LS powered stock suspension record.

David Pearson would be the owner of the stock suspension 275 radial record with a 4.23@176 IIRC.
