KOTH No. 6 Win of the year

[Stephanie]

Yes that is right folks. My brother Robert Minchew (Slow55) won KOTH again tonight @ Kennadale.

And set his best time in the car so far.

Way to go RatMan....

[TRAXX]

[Stephanie]

He best was something like 4.7 @ 150 with a .024 reaction time

Wow! They are within 2 tenths of what they ran on the big tire. Very impressive. Kenny Barnes is just a pussy :cool:

[turboten5]

they are not no where near kenny barnes and grants 454@161

they got the big tire out so these little guys could win,

[BP]

I made money when he outran Bud:)

Btw: You see the Porsche crash? It ripped the axle flange apart!!! 3,000hp, 3,000 pounds and wheel hop can tear stuff up I suppose.

Lets see someone run that on them buttercutters

[Stephanie]

Michael Kilgore :rolleyes:

Yes I saw that wreck. It happend right in front of us. Thank goodness he was okay.

The Run between him and but were so freaken close. They did not even know who was gonna win. My brother just got him at the light if it had not been for that bud would have taken him

ok so its more like within .15. All im saying is i am impressed. Its a smaller tire so of course they are going to be a little slower, but DANG they are closing the gap.

Grant is still out there trying to run on the Ws...why cant Kenny?

[bgnracing]

he sold all his stuff.................

[turboten5]

if you look at the other W classes though there running easy 4.60
not here in this area but in the alabama etc..

[turboten5]

TRAXX no flame here yeah there running fast but its still almost a one man show,kinda getting boring

[elimustang1991]

candy man will be back ,tell him i said nice numbers

[TRAXX]

TRAXX no flame here yeah there running fast but its still almost a one man show,kinda getting boring


Naw its cool, Im just saying I am impressed at how quick they have gotten up to speed on the new tire. And yes, some of the other guys need to step it up to make it more exciting (though im sure Stephanie will disagree:D ). Im sure they will be in the .60s soon enough. The W tire is new to this series so alot of the guys are still figureing them out.

Anybody else notice Tony Christian's crew chief working on the runner up's car? When comes to nitrous and street cars you can't get much better than that!

There are a lot of extremely sucessful racers competing in KOTH this year and your brothers car is kicking their asses nearly every week. He definitely knows how to run fast on 10.5" tires!

Any chance on him going on the road to some of the bigger 10.5" shootouts this year? Possibly the World Street Nationals? They use nearly identical rules as KOTH but it pays $5000 to win and last year there were 70 cars entered for a 32 car field. http://www.speedworlddragway.com/SN2001Flyer.html
