Their race cars run low 9 sec ETs with a lot of mods but with stock tires, exhaust manifolds etc
The 540 cubic inch 69 L88 clone went 9.01 @ 151.10 at Cecil County Dragway, Rising Sun, Maryland. Jordan previously held the record for the class at 9.10 driving his 67 Corvette. Terry put it down to 9.01 last week with the black car. They have both been knocking on the door, trying to get a 8.99 or better for the last two years. It will happen.....
