Default Ohio Boys break the MPH record!

The Ohio Boys are getting closer to showing who has the baddest LS1 in the country.

Straight from my sources in Norwalk, Ohio....Steve Turley drove the flamed land rocket thru the lights at 178.3 mph today.....but here's the real point....he pedaled twice to a achieve only a 1.50 60' and 8.60 1320'. When they hook that beast the ET record is in jeopardy!

They still have another run to make before the day is out so we will see if they pick up some more.....rumor has it Mad Mike Brown is gonna put a little more to her.

Stay tuned....

Not to take up for The Ohio Boys, but check out "YearOne Experience, The Ohio Boys Video," here in LS1Tech. This is what they did when they came to Atlanta last week.

A little 88/98 hybrid at 15 PSI.

The track wasn't hooking for **** today,for the fast car's at least.It hooked hard enough for me to break the rear on my almost stock Z06.

Steve smoked the tires at 1100-1200 ft on one pass.
