Anouncement: Vincent No Longer Has Top N/A Car
Yep, the deed was done this past Monday at 1:28 PM out at Auto Club Dragway in Fontana, California and witnessed by many on this board. The new time for everyone to shoot for is 110.41 @ 12.293.

Vincent took everything in good cheer with the one finger salute and then a firm handshake and congratulations. Many new motors comming on line this year and I suspect the current record will be short lived.

I would not be a bit surprised if someone is not in the 11 second bracket with a N/A car by the end of the year or early next.

Hes probably smoking his computer trying to find some secret power adders.

I was looking at a pic of my old LG4 and there are so many hoses and etc that even with the air cleaner off a nitros system could hide there in plain sight.

As all of us already know, we haven't heard the last of Vincent. He's waiting to see what the rest of us can put down and how we do it.
