Re: SKUNK2 9.89 @ NOPI FINALS QUAL 1 (Rhman19)

minimum weight is actually determined by engine displacement. .7 lbs per cc = weight. (for fwd anyway, changes for rwd and acvw)

Re: SKUNK2 9.89 @ NOPI FINALS QUAL 1 (SlowHatchGrL)

congrats to the team and their sponsors!!

the car went 9.885 to set a new record for NDRA.

the car had to weigh more for NDRA than it did for battle. the ndra weight is even higher than the NHRA weight. they must have found more power

again...congrats to the team

I thought Dr. Charles' quote during the awards ceremony was funny, "If you dont have a K-series next year I dont know what to tell you. " lol
