Default 9.80's, N/A, Drag Radials.....

Does anybody know of a car out there that is faster than that on drag radials and naturally aspirated??
I have heard tale of a WS6, that is naturally aspirated, on drag radials, running in the 9.80 range.

I do not see why it can't happen, so i would think someone is doing it someplace out there.

Naturally Aspirated doesn't mean it's not built. They're prolly a lot faster than that

well, obviously a stock LS1 isn't gonna do it, it's got to be built.

but a N/A LS1 on drag radials in the 9.80 range?

We might put a drag radial on this year just to run some 8.90's and be done with it.

Already went 8.7X's and that was before some new items.

By the way, the 8.75 was on a 28.5 x true 10 (10.5) Drag Radials are working better than these anyways and the Stiffer sidewall should help a tad with the shock from the launch.
