Default Just want to congradulate Howard and the RLZ crew.....

these boys managed to win the quick 8th class today at rockingham dragway... dont know if anyone was there, but on just a little over 550whp they managed to pull a 9.8 @ 148 mph with horrible track conditions... to RLZ!

Absolutely amazing!!! Way to drive Howard, and hats off to Brad for being the man behind the scene. I can't wait to see what these guys can do when they actually build a motor!
