Just a little southern Outlaw 10.5" racing .....

[1TONY1]

That's right, 10.5" tires in the 1/8 mile look how far down the track these guys are. The camaro is still carrying the front tire too. The 10.5" record was broken at this race 4.49 @ 162mph

Life would be so sweet with a 33 x 10.5W. 4.49 in the 8th is moving.

10.5 cars are fun as heck, but pretty wild and dangerous too. The pictures above illustrate pretty common occururences at 10.5" races. 2000+ HP through small tires gets pretty hairy on a regular basis and there are a lot of 10.5 cars wrecked each year.

Nope, it stayed on all 4's.

I'm putting my motor back together now, but 3 years later these guys are 4/10ths quicker. There is a HUGE race in Orlando this weekend (World Street Nationals)....it is worth seeing. If I was not having to go to the VCA autocross in Detroit I would definately be there. Seems like they usually have 75-100 cars trying to qualify in the 10.5" class 32 car field. Not to mention the promod type cars and also the 3500 lb cars on drag radials going high 7's and low 8's.

p.s. The outlaw class like the pics above is 10.5"W tire, 3000 lbs, stock firewall, stock front frame rails and stock type front suspension.

David...you need to see one of these races....you will love it.

My favorite is the drag radial class. 3200 pounds, stock suspension and 7.66 at 180+ on drag radials.
