Ok so how did the qualifying look in outlaw street? Did Dick have to mash the button and use calendar pages for delay to win against 9.0 cars like me?

Outlaw street was heads up race not index/brackets.
He had competition easily covered as long as he didnt red light. Went 7.7xx @177.xx on smallish single gun.

KRE's NA dragster had better ET but iirc Dick held on to most mph for event.

Rules for outlaw street were VERY liberal...
Class rules:
  • Car must have headlights, & tail lights
  • Car must have a license plate
  • Any Power Adder – no limits or restrictions
  • Any fuel – no limits or restriction
  • Any Chassis
  • Car must retain stock steel roof and rear quarter panels
  • Must run traditional Pontiac V-8 engine with 4.620 block bore spacing & Pontiac Body
Racing will be done on a .400 Pro tree and the first one to the end wins

surprised no other big guns came out for the $2000. Maybe next year???

Fwiw it was @97 in the shade, fortunately with a nice breeze coming from the west. I didnt bother to note details like DA, starting line temp etc..
