i never said they were street cars. I never said they race in the streets of Newark, either. the cars usually get trailered in, trailered out to the highway and back on the trailers after the race. the cars are serious race cars, but for whatever reason...hostory i guess, they risk racing them on the highway. the 7 sec cars I spoke of were from out of town, both tube chassis cars with big blocks and nitrous...the owner of one of them races an 8 sec car regularly at the track now and does not get involved in street racing anymore. same with the few 8s I've seen...track only cars (except for one yellow GN that came from either NY or JC, not exactly sure, it was about 13 years ago) that were trailered in from as far away as the Carolinas...
some of these races were for 60 and 70,000 dollars, so is it really hard to believe that race cars came to run?
Big Simon's Cadillac ran 9's on the bottle and he got spotted a few times...**** was for real back in the day. I don't watch nowadays, too much for me to lose, realized the risk isn't worth it and most of those guys lock up races at the hole and run at the track anyway...
maybe you're right, they probably didn't run their numbers on the highway, that's concievable, but the facts are the facts, the cars existed
besides, why would i need to lie? LOL they weren't my cars, I got nobody to impress with other peoples' ****
