Maybe it'll be an elite 4 or 5 before the end of the season.

I agree, lately it seems Joe has been dropping a tenth almost every pass. To my calculations.... I think its gonna be Joe next.

Joe, you coming this weekend??

I don't know who the next is going to be but i am sure all 3 will be gettting their on their own very shortly...

...i am still amazed at how quick and fast these cars are getting -- everyone really stepped up this year continuing to make this class very enjoyable

Mat busting out .20s in his first handful of passes definitely means he has the ability to do it.

Right now i believe joe is the only other sfwd/ts style car to dip into the teens correct?
I would love to see Joe put an 8.XX up on the board ! ! ! !

I doubt they will be out the rest of the year, but I surely see reynolds and norris joining the 8 second club in the near future.

Although I dont think we can count out Miller either.

He went 166 at the shoot out, and i know his car was MOVING in the 1/8th at world cup . .

clutchmasters is obviously capable of it. if they wouldnt have lifted at the 1/8th mile every pass this year they probably could have done it a long time ago hahaha (j/k chris and norris) norris: "turn up the boost" me: "its all the way up" norris: long pause......."uhhh....turn it up more" hahaha that was awesome


kellers car is sick, it will do it.

millers car is sick too, if miller can make it to the track with out having issues each time with one thing or another its going to do it

if the track is good, i think felix is going to go a teen on the 24.5's at honda-day

according to motec the fastest my car would have gone combining my 2 best runs is a 9.12. im going to throw 4 stages of boost control in 2nd gear and try again. we will see i guess. based off of my 10.0 curse, im sure the same will happen with 9.0's haha
