What about Drag Radials and Slicks to Street that's a huge proven gain on both. V6 and I4s.

Mostly trying to see if enough stock are racing. Kevin you would be modified and you are just over 2 seconds faster not much of a compition

I've raced the last 2 years there. 2 years ago no I4's ran but last year there were 2 and they were killing the V6's because with a CAI & tune I'm considered modified as a V6. Turbo's running E-85 and extra Lbs of boost also just considered modified. Only 1 guy ran in the super modified class with a supercharged 5th gen V6 but the I4's ran faster than he did anyway. He ran mid 14's and the Turbo's were low 13's high 12's. i actually posted the fastest V6 time there during the qualifying rounds at 14.052 / 98.6mph. I have a manual and have only seen one other 6th gen V6 run the track at CF. That was Ben 2 years ago when he broke into the 11's and burned through the rear harness cause the drag radials were rubbing and he didn't know it. Anyway looking forward to getting into the 13's this year if I can!!

CF7 had 2 I4's I missed CF8 due to life.. CF9 was never in the books for me. Here's what I've noticed with the I4 Racers the first year we were all 14s because none of us had ever drag raced before now we're hitting mid 13's as we learn to launch our cars. The ones last year were bolt-ons and tuned and one was heavily modified. That thick hot bowling green air does nothing for anyone. Many I4's have noticed a massive disparity in Tuners hiding things for their shop cars or not tuning things that should be tuned. I hope I can stay in the 12's this summer on 93 Pump Gas but that heat.... There used to be more V6 racers but the 5th Gens have either been traded away or replaced with V8's from that older group. We had two 10s V6 5th Gens at CF7.
