I just can't imagine risking a $100,000 car in a no prep race.
I had a Nova that ran low 8's but that was a big tire car only had to lift a couple of times.
Used to race with guys that ran 10.5 cars in the 7's and a couple guys in the 8's on 8 inch tires. They were an absolute handful to get down the track... exciting for sure. Guess I just don't have enough money to wreck a car for excitement.
