When I did it in 2002, there were about 500 cars/trucks that completed the whole trip (from Lincoln, Nebraska to Youngstown, OH). I would say at least 100 of them were tubbed “street” cars. They spent 7 whole days in them, not 4 hours. > > I believe Rod Savoy (a plumber that built a '57 Corvette & campained it in the fastest street car shootout thru the late '80s early '90s) was running mid 7s & the car had done the power tour several times. Even in our own area of the country there was Kenny Anderson who had a light blue '78 Malibu who ran 8.50s & I can vouch - he drove that car everywhere. I never saw it on a trailer - ever. I remember being at the Super Nationals in Canfield when it was raining for a week straight & Kenny was driving the Malibu to & from the track. I saw him run 8.55 at Salem Raceway and then saw him driving it in the rain that evening at the cruise night. Both of these cars were tubbed. > > I am sure these cars are not really comfortable, but to each their own. They are “street” cars. whats funny is you guys are arguing over what is called “street” but someone says “stock” then others cry sorry once tubbed IMHO not a street car --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/worlds-fastest-street-legal-car/185906)._
