Marty UsherWhat really upset me was I only got to make 9 runs! Becuase of the all day rain, many locals did not show up for open racing that evening - only our group and about 8 or 9 other cars. You could literally drive around after a run and line up to be the next to race with no waiting.

EVERY Prowler won their class.

Mine was STILL the Fastest Naturally Aspirated Prowler to make a 1/4 run.
Cnotes was the fastest supercharged car there.
Gary Archer had ther fastest Prowler with stock engine and headers.
Bob Goetz was fastest stock engine without headers and AND had the best reaction time of the evening.
Jerry Nauman made his first pass on a drag strip so was the fastest 1st time racer in the men's division
Grand Touring Louise (sorry - forgot your last name) was Fastest Canadaian AND fastest in the women's division.

Ok - for those that were there, did anybody else run? I was too busy making passes to get to see anybody else run.

RayMarty ... what was THE fastest time for a Prowler there? In all fairness ... I would suggest that the title of Fastest Prowler be won ONLY at National events such as the Dells event. This way, it is defended annually and there will likely be a larger draw for a drag event with a "title" on the line ... just a thought.
Gary ArcherMarty...Bob said he had the fastest reaction time, no slip to prove! I'll take that that title at a .022 !!

Gary Archer
02 Gold

Bob GoetzGary I think Marty has the slip? But anyways it does not matter to me cause you did it on a solo run with no presure..... LOL

For those that herd the headers on Garys car and I will say that after 70MPH they REALLY PERFORM, after looking at the 660 ft slips to the finish Garys car pulled on me by 2/10 on the last 1/2 of the track and a 1/10 on the first 1/2 for a 3/10 on the quarter mile. I ran him several times and the numbers were always the same. And I am sure Gary will give you a butt dyno report.

I was hoping to have a set on display at the Dells but they came in to late, they are here now and I will post photos later. They are Stainless Steel equal length headers and run $1290.00 with out cats and $1490 with cats.

Marty UsherI knew I should have sent my car to Chagrin Falls for those headers!

Ray - times were slow due to the 92 degree heat & humidity. The 2005 Viper never ran faster than 13.2 when the car should have been in the low 12's under better weather conditions and maybe a more experienced driver...

Fastest time slips are just that - the fastest time slips. The only way to know whose car is faster than another is to race heads up side by side.

My fastest time was 13.7. I ran 6 times in the 13.8s and twice just over 14.0 - way too much tire spin at the line but both times I got up to triple digit speeds at the end of the runs.

Beating the 2005 Viper off the line and through the 1/8 mile mark and only losing by a few car lengths was the most fun for me.
