We'll there seems to be allot of attention towards the next Holy Grail in Sport Compact Drag Racing.. the first SFWD to run 8's..


Now we know that there are some real contenders namely / Felix - Tony1 - Jonathan - Ballard - CFT - Tempest - Cesear The Champ - Courtney Green etc..

Now there are lot arguments for someone doing it at a test and tune but who's knows what size turbo weight etc.. they ran it at.. soooooooo...


Lets do it! 8 cars for Outlaw Showdown to Shoot for 8's and up to $16k in winnings..

$2500 buy in

1st - $9000
2nd - $4000

Best Reaction Time $3000

The event could take place Aug30th one week after Etown Nopi - at NED and I will broadcast the entire event live and will dedicate a site entirely to that race where all the racers will have there own channels for ther fans and I will have up to 10' cameras doing the brodcast..

I will also GUARANTEE that the track will be prepped better than most Pro Events..!


So lets save this sport and bring it to the next level all at once!

any takers?

So Far I have

1. Jonathan Reynolds
2. Felix Medina
3. Cesear DaChamp
4. Miller
5. CFT
6. Ballard (needs to confirm)

would this be one of the largest single class payouts ever?

Sure I'm in.

LOL jk. But seriously, just think of how many people will come out to see this with there own eyes?

 

NED is which track?? I would like to attend this event if it was to happen

 

im down if everything goes right.....
great idea but would need all good contenders.east to west

 

Sounds interesting!

 

You can take my name off of that list, we are no where in the vicinity of running 8s in NOPI legal trim.

im guessing new england dragway, but seriously, for this amount of bread, it would need to be central.

 

ned would be a great prepped track. however, not really a central location to all on the list. would be a east coast event but might have to be somewhere in the middle.

Maybe the rules can be adjusted to limit GM and K series cars to a 61mm turbo and let the B series cars run 81mm turbos. That way everything is fair.

 

Give everyone 72's and 26's

 

I think that Memphis or St. Louis would be more central for everyone. 5k is a stout buyin, sucks for the losers.

I do not think that is is NOPI trim

Thought is was 2500lb, 72mm, 26in slicks

 

i say 2400 w/driver 72mm turbo any tire size or 26 max.run what you brung and hope you brung enough.

lmao

 

How about no turbo size limit, 2 power adders, and 26" slicks? Remeber, this is a race into the 8's. Who cares how they do it?

My moneys on Clutchmasters though. Who wants sidebets???

what about all motor cars that are knocking on 8's?

 

 

if it becomes just run whatever setup you have, what's the significance of the 8 second e/t.

I thought the whole attraction to these cars is that they are still (or nearly) SFWD legal and approaching 8 second ets. Without the class regulations, would it really be that big of a deal to push into the 8s.

I doubt it

 

so this is definately on? is anyone really willing to pony up that much cash on this much short notice? personally i think it would be alot cooler if someone put up a bounty for the first fwd streetcar in the 8s. it would be like summits 25k for the first 200 mph sport compact or nopis 7 second fwd club. that would create some excitement and give everyone something to shoot for.

no one is going to pay $5k entry. thats a **** ton of money just to race.

 

yeah find a sponsor for that achievement at a race already.

 

it would be awesome to see this go down
