Just something to shoot for: CSX 3159, the big block "King Cobra" owned and campaigned by Clem Hoppe and modified for drag racing by Motion Performance in Baldwin, NY set a NASCAR National Record with a 10.3 second pass at 133 mph. That was back in 1968!

I agree with Marco: ETs in the high 9s should be possible with today's engines and tire technology.
