I love the first video because it shows you how much of a damn sleeper those cars can be!

The second video rawked when Kibler carried the front wheels past the damn 330' mark!!

i thought it was cool. i assume the raceweight was low since they ran powerglides. very impressive that is carried the wheels that far.

Richie Kibler's car does have a 2-speed PG and the race weight is a bit on the low side (around 3000-3200lbs)....

Kibler's car now is back-halved with a 4-link and at a recent race he ran 5.25 @137mph in the 1/8th with a 1.25 60' on little 10.5" X 28" tall tires.... He is the fastest in his class which is a real 10.5" tire racing series in NC and when he gets the 91mm turbo on (he is using an 88mm turbo now) I'm sure you will see this car running in the 4's in the 1/8th!!! Keep in mind that a 5.25 @137mph in the 1/8th is easily a 7.9 @170+mph in the 1/4

I think if your car has a chute out back, it's no longer considered a sleeper.

The first video of Jason Cramer's TSM GN running 9.96 was at Bowling Green (the 2002 GS Nats)....

As far as the car with a 'chute not being a sleeper I agree, but I think the sleeper somebody mentioned before would be Jason's stock block TSM GN in the first video and you may not be able to see it in the video, but Jason's GN is full weight with a full interior and he actually has a baby seat in the back
