That 3.45 is a new record in the 1/8 too !
Exactly what I was thinking.I mean is a pro mod with doors cut out really a door car...lol
Bad ass regardless but some of these cars aren't really cars anymore
small tire?! What in the hell constitutes a big tire car then? Those meats were quite tall and looked like they were about 15" wide. That rear end looked like it couldnt have been much larger than the pumpkin at all.The small tire cars are really impressive to me.
10in tireExactly what I was thinking.

In that case.... that aint no small tire car. Look at the burnout. Those look like they are 14 or 15 inches wide.10in tire
I haven't followed the small tire stuff for awhile but I know they were running over 150mph, probably faster now. @RitcheyRch would probably know, a 10.5w doesn't count as a 10in tire. They're almost 12in wideIn that case.... that aint no small tire car. Look at the burnout. Those look like they are 14 or 15 inches wide.
Crazy looking GM motorFriend is at Bradenton right now working with them. Sent me these earlier today.

We usually refer to the Radial cars, as small tire.Exactly what I was thinking.

Looks like a straight up Hoosier slick. Is there something I am missing?We usually refer to the Radial cars, as small tire.
Todd Moyer runs an Outlaw Pro Mod car, not a RVW (Radial Versus The World) car.
Looks like Sonny's heads.Crazy looking GM motor
I agree. Pro 275 is one of my favorite classes...The small tire cars are really impressive to me.
You're not missing a thing. That is a Hoosier slick. That's an Outlaw Pro Mod car.Looks like a straight up Hoosier slick. Is there something I am missing?
I love doorslammersYou're not missing a thing. That is a Hoosier slick. That's an Outlaw Pro Mod car.
This is a huge event in Florida. They have small tire cars down there too. I even saw some Pro Stock's yesterday.
looks more like a Noonan hemiLooks like Sonny's heads.
Dang. Sitting here on my old ass, thinking I miss messing around with race cars.Friend is at Bradenton right now working with them. Sent me these earlier today.

Ahh. Thanks.That's the fuel/methanol tank.
This is a small tire from Chuckwalla 2 weeks ago. Small tire and that is the finish line.The small tire cars are really impressive to me.
Is that a 275DR or a 10.5WThis is a small tire from Chuckwalla 2 weeks ago. Small tire and that is the finish line. View attachment 1326580
Not sure I wasn't there. Picture came from another forum I am on. Picture was taken from the winning car.Is that a 275DR or a 10.5W

I'm kind of a gearhead, and just looking at that motor is mind boggling!All this stuff is so incredible it is hard to imagine what is next….
The trials, tribulations and engineering that just the engine above represents would be mind boggling to most gearheads.

The engine itself isn’t really mind boggling. It’s the fuel system, clutch/converter, gear combos, and chassis setup that’ll get you. The engines are surprisingly simple, built to survive (I say that having been around blown hemis at BAE for a minute or two). It’s affordable for its capabilities too.I'm kind of a gearhead, and just looking at that motor is mind boggling!
Kind of like looking at a supermodel. You have no idea what language she speaks, or what performance she's really capable of. Utterly clueless, but you know you still want to take her for a spin!

This is the same engine that powered "Turbo" Todd Moyers Camaro to the Quickest and Fastest 1/8 mile and 1/4 mile runs in the history of drag racing for a suspended door car!! This engine produces over 6000HP reliably a claim NO OTHER engine builder can make.....Our Numerous World Records speak...xtremeracingengines.com
You know thats a drop in the bucket in the grand scheme if things for what it takes to run one of these types of cars right? I’m pretty sure you do.
Yea, budget is out the window with these cars. $90K is just the long block though, im sure!Q

20 years ago, in a TAFC, to go 5.5x’s, we had weekends that had cost in upwards of $20-30k between parts and other expenses. Granted, those were bad weekends and weren't the norm, it just goes to show how expensive this shit is. I bet Moyer has a few spare bullets too!

I just had this conversation with a close friend of mine. There's probably close to $500k in development and production in something like this splayed valve 6 cylinder for Comp eliminator. It can make other forms of drag racing seem “not as bad”
That is insane!You want out the window crazy…..
