Default Hot of the presses

Jeff Schwartz and his twin turbo ultima wins the Z2Z competition at the Silver State Challenge in Ely Nevada. While only making power with 8.9 psi (set up to do 15) he made the run to 0-190.2-0 in a lightning 40 seconds. He posted the top speed and fastest time in the competition, besting Big Red, a few twin turbo vipers and a twin turbo Ford GT. More details as they come in. Way to go Jeff and the Schwartz Performance team

I thought the 'cuda was purpose-built for this competition, but I wouldn't blame him if he wants to hit the shows and win some awards before throroughly punishing that car.

BTW, congrats to Jeff Schwartz!

all i can say is Jeff your nuts are bigger then mine. Hitting 190 and then standing on the brakes as hard as you did is freaking incredible.

Once again you are the man or should i say the man and a half.

Damn! The car had no engine or trans 3 weeks ago. That's some quick progress. I would have love to have seen a match-up w/the 'Cuda. Any other sites reporting more info?

Bob was not here showing the car, he was punishing it, broke the tranny at the dragstrip. Very cool to watch it go down the track though.

Jeff is the man, congrats on the win Jeff, that justifies you missing our event here this weekend.
