How fast are these cars running? Is the track prepped and does it hook?

Each class varies I usually get to 93 at the end, it's not a true 1/8 mile non prepped just asphalt. I heard 1 car in Sportsman is running 101 mph lol

Maybe that Tesla. Haha

But seriously, that is hauling ass in 1/8 for the rules they have laid out. Most of the sportsman class should be around 90 trap on 1/8, maybe a little more.

Its fair, especially considering he loses power as the battery drains.
Since the cars are fairly new, there is no perfect class.

Problem is he hits full power out of the gate, whereas we have to build rpm to get to full power. He said he spins, but its minimal.

I am tempted to go since I actually have a Friday free I haven't run the car, and it would be nice to get some baseline launches in!

I probably won't be there this week. I'll spectate next week though. Going to definitely go again the night before the Dyno day at Brooks, and then again that following week.

I should have my tune ready by then.

Are et streets allowed in the super car class?. I consider them drag radials, even tho they look like slicks.
