Exactly, there is some really neat stuff that goes on in that class, and it doesn't seem like it'd be too hard to win so long as you can run mid 11s consistently, which isn't too hard with certain combinations.The Daily Driver class is the best class, such a freak show.
I'm rooting for Lutz now myself, but I'm not sure how long that motor is going to last. I'm pretty sure he's going to send that engine to it's final destination if he keeps this up. Crazy week so far.Maybe I should root for Lutz since both guys I rooted for (Bailey and Larson) are pretty much done for. If my black cloud continues, Lutz could be done which would allow Cline to win it all.
I'm saying this especially since Lutz is battling a wounded engine, and I have a hunch that his head will do what Tom's head (and block) did. They did repair it, but I can't see it lasting long if he keeps going for six second passes.
I'm rooting for the guy in the 7-second 70 Monte Carlo. That thing is incredibly absurd.
Also, @Slash you seen that aussie Capri with a N/A Cleveland ripping off mid-10s? That's brrrrrutal for an N/A small block!
No I haven't. Is there any videos of it?? Those Clevelands can run!
I figured it was stroked, I have it playing in the background but somewhat missed it. Internets being dumb right now, did they finishing drying the track yet?
Dammit. Hope it clears up, I want to see Lutz run again.Naw, raining again ):
Yup, he's aiming for 6.30s. He said that truck has it, the 6.7 they ran was not even tapping into it yet.Did you guys see the video with Larry? He just said that he is going to go after the street car world record with the S-10!
EDIT: Now 10.04 @135mph
The car must be really light. I can see that engine making north of 550 horse though, especially if he is using closed chambered 4V heads which are as good as most aluminum aftermarket heads being that you can stuff a golf ball through the intake port. Pair that with a high lift roller cam, 408 kit and your basic bolt ons (especially with that massive Holley and tunnel ram setup) and I see a recipe for high power and a fast car.Yes I saw that. Absolutely insane. How much an that thing weigh? That thing is waaaaaaaaaay toooooo fast for such a basic Cleve. Either the car is featherlight or he's full of it and the engine is far more radical than he wants to admit.
Don't think I've ever seen a stock Willys coupe in anywhere.
