    On a promotionnal card, there's a picture of Chris Rado Integra and it says that he has run the 1/4 in 8.91. Is he the first unibody to run in the 8's ?

    Holden: Rado's coming at Sanair speedway on July 15th along with some other big player. Think you can make the trip ?

    I saw when he made the 8.91sec run. But his car is not a uni-body. His car is 1/2 tube chasis car.

    On the card, they say that he's the quickest and fastest FWD unibody. Are you sure about the tube frame ?

    Yes Im 100% positive. That is why he races in the Outlaw class in the IDRC. That is the same class as Stephan Papadakis. Also, NHRA prohibits cutting of the floor which if cut out would not be unibody.

    go to www.importdrag.com or www.nira.com and look at the rules and classes. Dont forget NHRA rules for imports.

    Thanks for the invite, but I will be in Quebec City driving a thrilling Dodge Caravan that weekend (family vacation).

    Lisa has been running low nines for a while. Bergenholtz and a few others are also running nines. They may hit eights before the end of this season. Damn these Hondas are getting pretty fast!
