9 inch tire Nova Dragging the BUMPER!
I dont post on here much..but today I'm gonna share my weekends excitment..
We entered a (9inch tire) Nine Inch Nightmare Run What Cha Brung Comp. this Saturday at 75-80 Dragway... I didnt stand a chance against any of these cars (OUTLAW drag radial guys)
... but I new i could hook this 9 inch tire...I run this Nine Inch Class every Friday night on a 6.50 index... Today was NO INDEX... and I was the ONLY regular who showed up..
I lost first round... But i put on one hell of a show for them...
Follow me now......
New Slicks $400, Nitrous $100. Fuel $50. Entry fee $100.
2 headers that need welded, a trans case that needs replaced. A reaer bumper thats needs some love....And a pair of soiled UNDERROOS....
To pull of crap like this on a 9 inch tire... PRICE LESS

The only thing those big wheelies are good for is to get some pictures! Sorry to see the carnage, but at least you got some shots of it...
