Some local boys bring a bad 87 IROC to town -- or so I am hearing. The ricekiller.com guy and myself are in talks about some agreement next year on the ORR car.

Might be worth a view.........

The IROC was a better car. Poor ole Kornbred got steamrolled. It wasn't fair.

I think they should start installing foot cam to see who really is pedaling the cars.

If you snooze you lose, and if you spin you don't win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IROC hooked well for "stock suspension" and drag radials.

i'm sure the iroc had a hidden nitrous kit... cause some runs, he was nailing it much faster.

Yeah, the whole "peddling" thing kills that show for me......it is always an argument about who lifted more. Sometimes you can hear the cars idle across the line.....WTF????

The guy on the show said it best - it is the sleeper of the year.

Did you notice the stock dual snorkel air cleaner? It was a very nicely done car.

That kid consistently beats cars that should beat him on paper. He is a an excellent driver and the car has been together 2 years. It is well sorted out by now.

Eugenio I think he said he had Nitrous on it, one scene said he tested the 2 stage and its working FINE!!!! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/drink.gif)

I really like the show, but the difference in car's performance lately has been a big point with me. If Kornbread car hooked like it did on the second run and he didnt bounce it off the limiter they would of had to give the Iroc a bunch of cars. But it spun, then Blew up............. Oh well

Like I said, I would love see a foot cam shot so we can all see who's lying. Maybe not during the racing but for the show, I think it would really show the men from the boys........
