As many of you know JRS BLOWN SNAKE sold his record setting cobra, someone local to me bought it and had it out at the track today and Im not sure if it is a new record or not but he just told me it ran a 8.61 on blower only with a twin screw and he still has a hit a nitrous to throw on it!! His name here is ALLGO, just wanted to congratulate him on a great pass :rockon: This is a SRA/auto car with a twin screw on it. Very impressive!!

No dissrespect to the New owner, but thats a awfull impressive pass, I agree lets see a video or some proof, JR spent alot of time getting that car to where it was, and BAM someone blows his record away with his old car...hum!

I love how the naysayers have a total of 6 posts combined. Three of which are from this thread alone. :poke:

Oh, and having the same IP address makes it all the more interesting.

The car came from Gettysburg, Pa.

I believe he was meaning to race, he took it out of IA. No tracks open around here yet!

To the naysayer(s): give the guy a chance! Tracks vary around the country and, that said, Joe is a good driver who currently has four or five BADASS rides, one of which was an 8 second (IIRC) YSI powered Fox body.

I agree. You don't go out and buy an 8 second car and immediately take it to the track never having raced before. This guy obviously has track experience and quite a few passes under his belt. On two different tracks, on two different days, with two differernt drivers you could definately see a .11 second improvement in any car.

Pretty cool. Yeah, JRS is missed, but his awesome car lives on here. Congrats to the new owner. That was one impressive run as posted by Scottyk. :beer:

I know the naysayer was banned, but I just don't get why some people are so quick to disbelieve a post. Jealousy? Eternal pessimist? :shrug:
