Super Gas speeds

Hey Tommy,

How fast does your vega go at 9.90? I've Wanted to ask you at PRI but you must have been standing behind your grandson...lol. Is it a small block?

Really though....we run a 572 in our vette...it goes 167-169 .......if money didn't matter...what would you run......a lot of successful racers...don't have the fastest cars.....

Why is that....

I got a question, name me a division champ for the year of 2011, that is not a high mph car? High MPH to me is 155 and above. And that doesn't mean that they win a round at less than 155 on the brakes. Maybe Tommy Phillips might be considered . Sounds to me like you may be trying to size Tommy D. up.

Rock, my sensors won't let me run over 160 or I'll break out

Tom, that's impressive. I thought you had put a v-6 in your car, but still has the 4 cyl. Wow. Lol

Lol.....

Tommy Phillips goes 160-165 I think....it's fast but not in the class fastest...

I would like to see what the average is.....I bet it's high 150's....

Let's see.....division champs.....
D1. Biondo around 170.....fast
D2. Tatum ( my hillbilly buddy) around 170.....fast
D3. Cook around 170.....fast
D4. Phillips....mid 160's....kinda fast....
D5. Moore.....not sure....somebody help
D6. Dalrymple....not sure ..need help
D7. Torres sr. I think mid 160's....kinda fast....

So Steve maverick .....you are probably close to correct....but I bet any of those 7 have the resources to go faster if they wanted to.....but they don't......why is that....

I wonder if nitro joe...gets the speed on the first time run on an event...lol

I though you had slowed down a little from the year before. I guess the reason no one mentioned you is because the question was about the div champs Lol
