And these are two different cars everyone. A black and white. Not sure if one is AT and one MT. And or driver differences in why one is so much higher trap. Anyhow until more info comes around. From "HEMI Dave" replying in the Corvetteforum below.

They are swearing both cars were bone stock other than drag radials on one. The time slips show it was 2 different days.

They said they twisted a drive shaft on one and Detroit overnighted another one for them.

They will be at it again tomorrow to try for even better times.

I know the MPH pickup is eye popping...........

Keep us updated,, but there has been no word on power adders anywhere,, so if there making more power, how are they doing it, where is it coming from

They can't tune and I don't think this track is going to ruin their reputation over Hellcats lying. Unless they didn't know about something. I bet they really want to find out and love the attention doing so. And if they're twisting driveshafts, these times/speeds are not surprising. Though now we know the 1st weakest point on the drivetrain with stickies.. Great

Nice time General is this an auto or stick?

I haven't been able to find that B5. But I'm guessing at least one but more likely both with such good times and traps.

 

[GeneralLee]

What's interesting is that the trap speed of 133 doesn't match the ET 10.48 and for a car to gain 7 mph it has to come from somewhere, more to come on this Friday I would guess....

These times are from two differen Hc's. One ran on the 5th and the other the 6th. Faster with slicks.

 

[GeneralLee]

We're they both A8s or was one of them M6?

That's still a mystery. I'm guessing both A8. Dodge already said the A8 is the quickest. But who knows. They're supposed to race them Friday but Someone said it was supposed to rain. I'll be following it and update.
