4th Annual Street Car Challenge / Silver Dollar Showdown March 8, 2009

Here's the complete results from the time runs listed in order of the final rank. Round 1 MPH is missing because somebody (not me) forgot to write it down this year ......... or he was trying to get out of keeping score so he could go back to doing burnouts.

Fixed it, THANKS! Among other things, I suffer from some hearing loss. Jerry / Terry ............. it sounds & looks the same when reading lips, but at least I was close.

Yup it does. Roll cages, turbo systems, bondo & fat ass drivers ............... it all adds up when you're scaling the cars. Unfortunately it also slows the cars down to a certain degree.

I thought Justin's car was light?? Looks like a fat chick on the scales!!!

I had to add 150 pounds

Justin, us light weights have to do that...I had to add 55. Thankfully I had a 1/2 tank of gas or it would have been another 25!

Adding weight to a Turbo car means more load, which means the engine works harder and builds EGT faster, which breeds boost... :-)

The same goes for taller gears... Some examples of this are coming soon in the form of a Black and green flamed former pro stock car that makes as much power as 3 BK cars combined at the rear wheels :-)
