9 Sec AWD Syclone
My buddies Syclone went 9.89 @ 137 at Memphis Motorsport Park about 3 weeks ago. Here's the vedio.

Hoover's per the name of the file. I don't think Robert in Sweden is too far behind. And a fellow Canuck in a Typhoon...

VERY nice! Any idea what the 60' was on that pass, and what kind of tire was he on?

Matt, the 60' was a 1.54 and I think it has BFG drag radials all the way around, but I could be wrong.........

BTW, it's too bad he's not down here cause he could make a LOT of money at the street races with that thing!!!!!

Isn't there a 9 second AWD Sy in the Rockford, IL area?
I think the guy owns a shop....can't think of the name right now.

Anyways....that's impressive considering the AWD!

You're thinking of Guy Reffet from Rockford Racecraft...
His truck will be something spectacular...Who knows what it will run, but it will be impressive nonetheless...

I knew who I was talking about.
I've heard that truck runs 9's on plain old street rubber, not drag radials. But who knows.
