Oak grove man sets world record.
Most of you aren't cool enough to even understand how fast this is but the hotrod guys will get it. I've been following rumors of this build via internet rumors and slivers of first hand information from friends of my dad who helped with the body work. Enjoy.

The guy who actually won the unlimited event has his old car, I believe a 2x winner for sale that does 6.9x for only 200k.

How funny would it be for him to go over the speed limit by around 15 mph on a straight highway, have a police car begin to pull him over and then have him hit the gas!
Cop would shit his pants!

The most impressive part is he has been driving it track to track for Drag Week.
Thats crazy. And a 190MPH 1/8th mile run? Good grief that's insane. |

That may have been an alcohol related response. But I have heard that a 9 sec car will give you a concussion if you launch without your head back against the seat.

He drove 1000 miles pulling a trailer then set a world record. Here's a pic I snapped of larson replacing an alternator belt in the rain. user/dunerdr/media/Mobile%20Uploads/image-17.jpg.html][/URL]
Dos street tires do.
