I wonder how well Brady & Madman are doing this weekend in Huntsville at the ORSCA race... I didn't get to go, but hopefully they did good for the first time out.

Well unfortunately they couldn't ever get the car to hook up and never made a good clean pass that I saw.. A new world record was set in their class (EZ Street) which was a 4.92 or 4.93 ET if I remember correctly..

Its really not a scary setup if you keep up with serious drag racing these days.. But, what is scary is that these setups are in STREET CARS with STOCK STYLE suspension under them and RADIALS.. But, there are other cars in their class running the same setups (BBC w/ Procharger) and they are hooking so I'm sure it was just an off week for them with the Firebird. Matter of fact a mustang with a BBC and Procharger set the new world record in their class (EZ Street) with a setup very similar to theirs..

Yes the 295/65 is the "norm" for the EZ Street class if I remember correctly..

That engine and blower combo was built by a friend of mine here in KC. In his 3500 lb. 1968 Camaro CONVERTABLE with a carb it went 7.90's at 176 shutting off early on a 10.5W.

I would expect about the same in Brady's car!

The car actually broke a rear spring at Huntsville and was rubbing a tire. Also had some wiring issue. Madman and Brady are gonna rework some stuff this weekend and get it set for Aiken.
