The Inaugural NMRA True Street Competition - Spring Break Strippers
Quiet as they come, Christian Worley's White Mustang GT rolled to the line and lifted the front 17x9 Cobra R at the start of its first pass. The sedate Stang has been converted to carburetion and features a '69 Boss 302 motor punched out to 347 cubes, a fogger nitrous-oxide system, and Barry Grant Mighty Demon carburetor. The Bradenton resident was looking like a runner-up favorite, running 10.01 and 10.11 on his first two efforts. A bad burnout resulted in a slower 10.86 pass for Christian's third run and Sixth-Place 10.32 average.
Robert Abney's '03 Cobra has no problem roasting the rear hides. Good thing he's the manager of a tire store during the week. This was the first time Abney participated in a racing event, and he's been creeping up on the car's immense power. He told us the car has gone 10.30 in testing and should be good for 9.80s on the blower and 9.40s on spray.
James Hume of Seminole, Florida, wheeled his vintage Pony to a 10.33 average. He threw the carburetor in the round file and installed a fuel-injected, 326ci small-block sporting a ProCharger F-1R supercharger with intercooler to power this Pony to a best elapsed time of 10.16 seconds.
Looking as if he was competing in the burnout contest, Steeda Autosports' Scott Boda heated the hides on his nitrous-sniffing, 410ci Windsor-powered LX Mustang. He ran 10.03 on his first run, but a bad nitrous relay limited him to a motor-only second run. Right before his final effort, Scott managed to get one of his two stages working, and on a 100hp shot, ran 10.48.
JPC Racing's Justin Burcham has taken his '05 Mustang from tame to track terror. His blown and nitrous-injected quarter-horse has run as fast as 9.23 at 156 mph, but he managed a pair of high-9s in Bradenton along with a high-10 run to place Third.
Runner-up Charles Nagy pulled on the reins and limited his Pony to running low-10s. Nagy needs an NHRA license and a few more pieces of safety equipment before he can unleash the 9.60s the car is capable of. Still, he took home the Runner-Up and posted the fastest 10-second average.
Winner
Powered by one of the smallest motors in contention, Chris Escobar's '86 SVO uses turbocharged 4.6-liter V-8 power to get the job done on the track.
Winner
A staggering 9.53-second average led to Escobar's coronation on Sunday as King of the Street.
