Below are the 'quickest' SVXs, based on 1/4 mile numbers. What about fastest? What kind of trap speeds are these guys running.

I have to give a lot of respect to Powered. I thought someone would have beaten his time by now. I am to poor to do so, so I have been laying low.

I believe 172 MPH was recorded once overseas. I've seen 150 MPH and was still pulling, but ran out of road.

Change "track" to "road circuit" and I may become interested in this thread.

The fast speed I have is 95.70mph. The fastest Tom has post on dragtimes.com is 95.3, but he may have done faster. I'm not sure.
