When it did show up at Cordova, it made one mediocre pass nowhere near class leading, and made it about 13 feet of the highway cruise before bailing out. No smack talk after that. The show was fun enough to watch for a few minutes, but "quickest street cars in the world" is total crap. Those aren't fast streetcars, they're slow racecars.


You sir are a liar. We never talked any crap about winning drag week. We actually told everyone we would lose. We only did it to try and do something besides street racing with the car and it seemed like lots of great folks were racing drag week. We also HAVE NEVER BEEN TO CORDOVA, it was Muncie Indiana....we nuked it on the first pass of the TEST day. Never even made it to lockup. And absolutely didn't make it far enough to hit the hwy and bailout as you said. Haters gonna hate. How far did you make it from Muncie?

Liar?? I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who read all about how the car was going to slaughter everyone at Drag Week. Over and over and over... Muncie or Cordova, the results were not as claimed. That's not me being a hater, it's a simple observation.

I've attended 3 DWs in person but my customers have won classes every year except 2006 and 2013. I'm plenty familiar with the event, thanks. :wink:

2 maybe 3 years ago when all the magazine racers ran all the good guys off by constantly fighting with them.

It's not the same speed talk as it was 5 years ago.
