Has felix done it again?

I was there and witnessed it but I have yet to see him or anyone else do it.

It was only one time that i know of and a very difficult things to do. I guess it's all in the boost or traction control or whatever theses guys are running these days. lol

As far as I know, I don't think no one has done it yet besides him. But if someone else was to ever dip into the 8's on the small tire, my vote would be Van Natten.

Then again, I'd hate to see Fred put a 72mm on that coupe (holy moly!)

I will do it a 100 times more if i go out racing .. but there's no reason and its very expensive ...its not that hard and 100 times easier with 26's.
went a 9.19 at etown off the trailer on a 1.65 60. and broke 2nd on the next pass with a 1.52 60 it would had gone 8's no problem ..
