Default shad goes 10.45@144mph!

if you haven't heard, shad from abacus racing went 10.45@144mph this weekend at MIR. he's worked very hard to get his setup this far... and with that trap speed he's still got more left in it. he didn't even qualify first though, took second behind jason hunt's coupe that went 10.25. i don't know how many of you people pay attention to the street class that these guys run in, but there are a LOT of exciting and fast racers in this class that all represent for VA. enjoy the vid.

looks like he is having a lot of weight transfer to the rear during shifts. i bet if he stuck some wheelie bars on there like some of the pros do it wouldnt transfer so hard.

very nice though. that trap speed is fucking insane.
