Should be VERY light, as theres no NHRA rule to go by on that specific category.

Right, that was pretty damned cool. Just sits spitting flames for a moment, then off into the distance.

that car can't make enough hp to get anywhere close to a .9. he's prolly 60 footing around 1.2.

I have asked this before, FUEL

when is someone going to try NITROMETHANE as fuel, I was at the NOPI drags at Moroso and everybody just looked at me with a strange look. the only group that said it may be trying somthing with NITRO was StreetGlow and that maybe for the Dragster class.... I hinted a custom cyl. head but 2 valve not 4 valve, but when for a rotary, no answers, methanol is so mundane relative to nitromethane for power production. BTW I have been asking for about 10 yrs. RON
