This was the 3rd full power pass in the car and it ran 8.98 @ 167MPH. The driver (Jeffrey Evans) reached to pull the parachute release and was not "celebrating" as some have posted. He and MacBook Pro made it out unharmed.

This car set the record for the True Street Class and was the first in the 8's.

The specs:
- 2550lbs
- 67mm Borg Warner turbo @ 35psi
- 24.5 x 9" tires

  • @leogo188 I can assure you he was reaching for the parachute release which you can see at the end of the video has been pulled open.

  • @leogo188 Video info is updated. He was actually pulling the parachute as many others have correctly posted in the comments before you.

  • thank god he didnt hit the othercar

  • what made it crash? flat tire?

  • too bad for the car too good for 8.98 @ 167MPH !!!

  • Why is everyone calling him a dumbass? when he pulled for the chute and the car grabbed and sending him of trajectory and he tried to both slow down and steer straight for under-steer was the problem and im guessing to run that fast he had a fat offset and running slick hence the under-steer that and it being FWD. he handled it like a Big boy. sounds like yall are the "Dumb-asses" and need to go to the track more

  • What a hardass!

  • what a dumbass .....i dont know how to race but arent u suppose to grab the steering wheel with ur both hands every after shift

  • Dumbass lol

  • @leogo188 Seeing as you don't even know what a parachute release is, I doubt your shitstang is fast enough to need one.

  • @leogo188~ AAAAHAHAH!!!.... he was reaching for the parachute, u goof!
