Looks good until you realize that there was a CJ "stocker" (in AA/S) going this fast at E'town a few weeks ago. On 9 inch tires.

Some kind of overlap.

Re: SS/B is getting more interesting
 

So what does this factor to? This was from Denver this past week. #1 qualifier!

1 5251 SS/B Todd Patterson, Augusta KS, '10 Cobra Jet 9.387 10.67 -1.283

Re: SS/B is getting more interesting
 

We've had SS/B cars running 9-teens to 8-90's @ 147-148 MPH for awhile now.
Just goes to show you how much those CJ's are holding back on their ET as the MPH is just as good as those running in the 8's.
Thanks to on-board computers we now have invisible throttle stops that can not be detected or monitored. That or they just spin the tires all through 1st gear!

9.387 x .9276 (Denver Correction Factor) = 8.707 sea-level time

It also went 147 mph ... actual ... in Denver. That's unreal.

Add: The 9.387 isn't its best run either. Went 9.320 in Rd. 1. 8.64 corrected.

Re: SS/B is getting more interesting
 

that was my point as well, Jared. I wonder if Todd is goin to be at INDY

Re: SS/B is getting more interesting
 

The factor is not as acurate if the car is blown or turbocharged. Of course they are underrated, but the factor would be differant if all cars were pressurized.

His father, Alan, is already on the entry list in GT/IA. If Todd enters, class elims. in SS/B will have T-bolts, 427 'Vettes, a '64 Hemi Plymouth, maybe a 390 AMX, and Todd's 2010 CJ; that's worth the price of admission.
