Default Congrats

I have to say congrats to Martin and Ryan from RPM for making it to the final in EZ street at the ORSCA race. Taking a LS1 and competing against BBC and turbo cars and making it to the final is impressive.
1.20-1.22 60ft times on a 325 drag radial is badass as well.

They had the black NOS Camaro. They ran in the 5.20s and took out the no. 1 qualifier.

Thanks guys.

We took a knife to a gun fight. We were running cars with big power. BBC with 3-4 stages, crank driven procharged, twin turbos, and the list goes on. I guess everything went our way. Martin was cutting great lights all day, and driving his *** off. We had the car working great on the 325 radials. We were cutting 1.20-1.22 60ft. times all day. We were running 5.22-5.29 @ 136-138 MPH.

If the car didn't wheelie, we might have took the win. I gave it to much power. 1.22 60ft. on the rears.

Time to put the big tires on it to see what it will do. It will go in the 7's.

A big thanks to Madman. He is the best in the buisness.
