The Gto looked very fast last night.
Im hoping daddy Dave can keep him in sec.
From what I’ve been reading, the NHRA does not like the show as much as we do…
NHRA is just butt hurt that Street Outlaws gets millions of viewers while their televised races get postponed for tennis as they continue to lose viewers.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHA
All the people on the show got one while it might no matter for a lot of them im sure Lutz is pissed

Lutz and the Evil Twin 57’s will be at the Buffalo Motorama March 27-29 if anyone wants to speak with him directly.
there is always IHRA
Funny interview from last year
Slapped 275 drag radials on the murder nova and went 4.60 @ 185
Amazing really. I knew these cars were fast but 185 in the 1/8th is straight killing it
when my friend on the inside told me we need to bring 6 second cars or better I can see why now…
I still don’t think the 9-10 spot cars are near that fast. There are a bunch of drag cars locally that run 4.5 class. Its just a matter of getting some of them to run on the street which most won’t
Well he went 4.6 with tries half the size of what he usually runs so I would imagine the car is dialed back also.
Man. Your racing knowledge runs deep.
Deep thoughts with Jack Handey
Well you’re comparing what they do to a 4.5 index class :lol:
Ok? You are clearly just trying to be annoying. So to be clear you don’t think a 4.5 index car is as fast as these are? Please say yes almighty authority on drag racing.
Do they reallybelieve this is “street racing”? There’s no way they could pull that shit off without catching the attention of the PoPo.
First off the index class locally is 4.70 with pretty much no rules they’re 100% race cars and no restrictions on weight/tire/etc and no where near street cars.
The 275 drag radial record at this point is 4.25ish?
So knocking off a 4.60 his first time out on a drag radial is pretty impressive im sure its significantly quicker with twice the amount of tire…I agree the 8-10 cars on the street outlaws list are somewhere in the 9s but to compete with the top 5 I agree with that theblue said about bringing a 6sec car and normally when those guys go out of town for the show they only bring the top 5.

So as much as the show is run on blocked off roads…I don’t think the NHRA is kidding themselves I mean they were doing this on the street way before the TV show this just moved it into the public.
I wouldn’t expect the discovery channel to accept all the liability of doing this on open roads.
Normally events they do like cash days are run on normal streets.
