Ladwig and Rado at NHRA Finals
OK sports fans, pay attention to the Comp Eliminator Class as Marty and Chris will be going at it. Marty in fact qualified #1 at the Vegas event so look for the front drive cars to make a dent in the field!
where the heck have you been in superstock Scott? Been keeping an eye out for you but have not seen you listed in any events lately.
Also, Marty got cic'd at vegas, but I don't think it will follow him to Cali this weekend because vegas is a alt corrected track, right?

Brian Fitzpatrick is also on the Comp Eliminator Entry List along with John Mihovetz. Wish these drivers success this weekend.
Trending Topics
Rado, Mihovetz, Ladwig, Fitzpatrick.....Turbo cars should occupy 4 out of the top 10 spots. Just please please PLEASE learn to watch your index Import drivers!
Rado/Ladwig: 7.92 Index.
Fitzpatrick: 7.00 Index.
Marty has hit AA/AF for .08, while Brian has chunked H/D for .10. For those that don't know, that's a lot of index to lose in a season. Try to keep 'em above .61 under during eliminations!
If Marty and Chris go quicker than 7.32 (Which we all know they can do with ease) during eliminations, their index is going to SUFFER! They have to back them down a little if they want to have a chance in the class!
Also, did you guys who care hear about Mihovetz buying the Aeromotive car from Steve Matusek (owner/operator of Aeromotive, Inc.)? That's a fast ***, well built car with a lot of new stuff the old Pro V-8 Turbo Kitty doesn't have!

i read a nice article on Mihovetz in a ford magazine while waiting a pep boys earlier this year. His own car is pretty fast. Matusek car is pretty bad ***. Look out for him 2010!

Rado made a pass round 2 and qualified #12 with a 7.92(index) 7.381(ET) -0.539under Index and Mart and Brian havent made the cut. They are 33 and 34
Me too!!!! Awesome job Rado. 1/8 mile was cooking also. Fastest fwd 1/8 by a long shot.
Not sure if he wants it posted or not so I will wait.
I will say this he would have qualified for all of the ADRL Extreme 10.5 races this year but maybe one. His 1/8 was that good. Wow congrats to Dave Z and the rest of the crew also.
