I see that there are several threads about who the fastest / quickest in a couple of different classes. This question does not necessarily pertain to who is racing today, but of all time.

Of all the U/SA cars who is the quickest. There are a lot to choose from. Some of them have held back for years while others just added HP every now and then. Some have been accused of not complying with the rules. Some go real fast and then run away to their natural class or even disappear.

I know that when a car can go ridiculously fast it is usually a U/SA classes vehicle. I've even seen a U/SA car go right through the water box, stage with wet 9"s, and then become #1 qualifier at a National Event.

There are a lot of racers out there who have been around a long time and can recall other U/SA cars that really flew. Here are some of the names that I have spoken to over the years. In no particular order:

Al Gentzel
Dick Moreland
Ray Remmington
Lloyd Mackay
Clayton Wright
Mike Senia
Paul Wong
Gary Summers
Bob Dennis
Jack McCarthy
Daran Summerton
David Koopman
Jonathan Tarrance
Bob Shaw
Ray Valpreda
Bill Koski
Bruce Fulper
Roy Dean
Billy Nees

I know I have missed some, but what do you all think. Some of these guys are professional baggers of sand. Who is the #1 U/SA?
