A couple of those times are wrong. Nitro funny cars run in the vicinity of roughly 4.7s Pro modified/Top Doorslammers are in the 5.9s And for Pro Stock, take into account the ones that race in IHRA. These monsters run low 6s.

VL turbo wouldn't run under any of those above catorgories, it would run under one of the "import" classes, as its only a 6 cylinder. The above classes are set for V8's (apart from the obvious bike ones etc)

lol turtle. judging by the low mph i'd say the turtle had some misfiring issues... and no doubt he probably had some trouble putting all the power to the ground, so he probably only went half track and "rolled" the rest of the way Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
