No Mercy 10 - Youmans
 
I know this was mentioned in the 7 Sec list tread but I think it deserves its own thread.

As said, he is racing in Pro 275 and just ripped off a 4.17@181 to be (currently) qualified 6th in a very competitive field.

What’s equally amazing is that he was carrying the tires at 150’ and peddled because he was heading for the wall and still ran that time. :eek:

Go Mr Youmans!

Saw that on FB. That car is flying!!!

mysticmissle 10-17-2019 07:58 PM

Wow that’s great

Mike Davis 10-17-2019 08:41 PM

He was overpowering the track the first couple of passes. Once he gets some seat time in that car it should move.
Even pedaling it he went 181.7

That's fantastic!

Mark G 10-17-2019 10:34 PM

That has to be one of the baddest Pontiac on the planet.

Pontiac power!

Nothing against Tommy, but if he decides to get out of Drag Racing he can always be in a cover band for ZZ Top.

Lol! When I first saw him I thought he was a ZZ top guy. Around 1990 there was an over the top early 70's purple'ish GTO around. It made a bunch of magazines and lost it's hood at Great Lakes Dragaway match racing Beswicks Pontiac powered Tempest. The rumour was the car had been built for a member of ZZ Top.

For a comparison the murder nova made 3200 @ 70 psi on wheel dyno. I estimate youmans combo to make every bit of that probably at lower boost.

What makes you say that?

Stan Weiss 10-18-2019 11:29 AM

Does anyone know what the 60 foot time was and what does it weigh? This is what I match up to @ 3000 pound I get well less than 3200 HP. I did see somewhere that it was said he has run a 4.0x.

60 Foot ET = 1.0965
330 Foot ET = 2.8127
1/8 Mile ET = 4.1760
1/8 Mile MPH = 181.7228

Incredible power. https://www.speedvideo.com/live-event/no-mercy-10-2019/

Scott Roberts 10-18-2019 02:44 PM

Looks like he just went a 4.03 @185 ... hard to see the board.

GTO Dan 10-18-2019 02:44 PM

4.03 @ 185.9!!!!

On to round 2

Mike Davis 10-18-2019 02:45 PM

Well looks like he made a 1st round broke bye run.
Ran a 4.03@185.9

Looks like Dan beat me to it.

Mean Green 10-18-2019 02:46 PM

I thought for sure the top was chopped. Awesome car!
