IN THE NEWS

You know you’re a bad ass when you have to pull the chutes in an 1/8th mile drag car.

Strych9 Racing with driver Trevor Stripling leapt to the top of the class when he opened up a can of whoop on the Texas Drag Racing League’s Tuff Street class last weekend.

After starting the day in the #1 qualifying spot with a tire shaking 5.16.  The Stripling driven, Pro-Systems Carbureted Camaro kept resetting the record on almost every pass.  It finally stopped with an astounding 5.050 @ 143.40 MPH.

Thats on a 28-10.5 tire folks.  WOW!!!

But it gets better, its a true stock suspension, single stage SpeedTech Diffuser plate, no wheelie bars, no progressive, no digital box and 3360 lbs.

 

This is a real street car!!

Watch this video of perfected simplicity in action.
