1320racerDodd's car is Billy Torrence's former car and the car that his Undercover cars are jigged from.

CashflowGoodyear owns M/T now. Curious to see what happens with that deal.
In Vegas for the 4 wide, hopefully the track is better than it was for the Divisional. It’s warmer so that should help.

1320racerI say Bryce was scared of that big mph and got lucky putting it on a 90 with a zero but an 11 pack with trailer many in S/C.

SCDIV1If he was really "scared" he would not have been holding but from the MPH's it looks like he was.
Not many cars out there running under 170 anymore...but of course I was not there so I don't know what kind of MPH he could run WOT
Was he lucky....absolutely....Not fun running the big speed cars....
Without some luck winning is usually not gonna happen......
An 11 pack wins the vast majority of S/C rounds....
I have lost with a 10 pack....That one hurt....

1320racerHe was a 169mph player and done round 2.

Toad1I think with some work a S/C whip that could get steady at 100 mph might work. I tried it for two races with Ron's Toilet and no stop. Left full throttle, 1.04 60', light came on on dash at 3.20 seconds and I just lifted on throttle. Ran 8.85 at 94 mph at 2012 Gators, next run moved timer down and went 8.94 at 95. I knew I was a duck but almost pulled it off. Went .020 but ran 8.87 at 92 dragging the brake. Other guy did good with .015 but I don't think his rear tires were turning at the stripe and he went 8.91 157 for the win. Should tried it more but back then my junk could run Top Dragster.
