Jarrett ran 8.77? @ 163 today pedaling it off the line.
He seems to be getting no love from the announcers, they barely mention him and don't seem to know he is leading SB Power Adder....esp since it's a stock bottom end 6.0

I got to see that, and they started having tech difficulties. They talked that duster up though. There were several they went on about that wasn't half as impressive as what stk48 is running.

One of the most impressive cars out there. It just makes crazy power for such a mild engine.

That's awesome! I am definitely rooting for him. Next year I am going to be on my damn computer hitting the send button like I am playing a video game. Don't think I could beat him but I would have at least been in the 8's. Keep it up man and hopefully next year we can meet up.

Depends on if it's a 3/4 race or full race Donkey Dick!

You have to be old like me to know that old school terminology....

I think he gave me the 3/4 race cam, that full race one might not have had a good idle, lol
The #2 car is pushing him, he might need to kick that Donkey in the azz

I remember when Crane came out with a line of "3/4 race cams". I used to hear that term so much working at Townsend's Speed Shop from customers. Used to drive me nuts.

I was far more annoyed at the trend of people referring thier camshaft by the lift. ".....yeah, its got a 500 lift cam....."

Or the oft heard question....does it have a cam in it?

Yes, all cars have cams......unless it's a rotary.

Rooting for Jarrett! As long as he makes a decent run, #2 can't catch him. They have an 8.5 sec limit I believe.
