Yeah, I've seen faster.






In reality, I was impressed. Deffinitly made the cars running after it look pretty damn slow.

After I went to the Gatornationals, I had a totally new respect for drag racing. I think that that TF was just alcohol only. Don't they typically run low 5's? I didn't hear the announcer say it was using NM. I think if anything they were testing probably the first 330'. -Mark

Tony Schumacer owns the current top speed record @ 337, before they went to an 85% mixture on nitro. They're in the low 4.40s on times, but don't think they've broken a 4.3 that i Know of yet.. I'll be watching them in either Bristol, St Louis, or Chicago this year.... I will miss the Gators though.. always a good show..
