Ohio Boys Bradenton Finals.....

Steve Turley finished a very respectable fourth place out of a 36 car field.

Last pass was an incredible 8.15 @ 174 on DR's which is only a few clicks off their best "slick" pass at 8.12.

He lost to a turbo stang that went 7.78 @ 190 and then went on win the race with a 7.81 pass.

The track was awesome, the race was awesome...great weekend! I highly recommend the trip for anyone interested next year!

no wheelie bars in drag radial class. yea just imagine if there was no headwind, you would have seen an ls1 car go 7's on radials.

Awesome for Steve and Mike and the crew!

Looks like 7's will be in the bag once they get the slicks on the car. That front suspension tuning must have provided some good benefits.

A dead on head-wind gusting every bit of 20mph!
And Steve stood his car on the bumper Saturday, flattening out what looked like his cross-over tube going to the turbo when he came down. He might not have lost when he did if it werent for the damage that occured the day before.

Overall, it was an amazing weekend! Those LS1 cars are flyin!
