What?? the last I heard anyone getting kicked off was Nordy racer, he had a 9.4 second "street driven" GN. they kicked him for running a 6.03 without an NHRA license or 8 point. I thought it was only if you ran faster than 6.5 you had to have a cage cause that means you are faster than a 10 second 1/4. Ohh well gayness.

Ryne's vette ran ******* awesome. 1.5x 60 ft too.

Also did you guys see the duramax diesel there? Ran a 7.7. Badass truck.
When I asked him what he had done to it, he said, "Big turbo, big tune, big trans."
