New RECORD???

Igovert500 · 11-07-2005, 09:39 PM

So did I miss something or what. I just went onto 3sny's website and there is a caption saying:

"Jack Tretarian breaks 1/4 world record by running a 10.4 @ 138mph"

I can't find anymore info, I search 3si and couldn't find any discussion of it at all. So has Nelson's car been dethroned? Anybody know anything about this?

Nelsons car hasnt ever held the record, and that run was a while ago.
Nelsons car did just run a 11.004@140 with an IC pipe off and only making 19psi for part of the run and a 2.1 60' time.

um, Matt Monet ran a 10.75 and 10.76 in Nelson's car a while ago. His has been the record for a while, where've you been?

you guys see how Ray ran an 11.00 @ 140 with an IC pipe loose and only at 19psi? http://www.3si.org/forum/showthread....5&page=1&pp=10

he didn't set the record, but to reach that trap speed with your car running half-ass...pretty freakin awesome.

lol, did you even read this thread?

Igovert500 · 11-08-2005, 09:13 PM

Holy hell that is just unreal. Can't wait to hear how Ray does on Friday at e-town. (wish I weren't going to NY this weekend or I'd be there for sure!)

That is the video of his 'bad' run @ 140.

How I missed this thread originally is beyond me.

It will be awesome to finally have extremely respectible 1/4s for our platform.

yes i read the thread. yes, i know my post was off-topic, but i posted b/c i had already heard about all that stuff. and i had JUST heard about Ray's 'crappy' run trapping 140. i thought my addition carried a bit more weight than past records.

all of the posts? because i posted the same thing as you did, but said nelsons instead of rays, then I was corrected saying I was talking about rays car.

I said I was a dumbass and ment to type rays car.

Then you posted about what we were talking about already....I found it comical

hahaha! now i find it comical too!
i must have browsed over your post. i read it, but it didn't register. i saw Igovert's post and new what he was talking about, so i assumed too much. but i hadn't read about ray's crappy run when you had posted it. i just ran over to 3si and saw something new and was like 'whoa! i can post this for something new on the af records thread'.

hahaha. its always good to laugh at yourself.
