Quickest eighth-mile pass ever on 10.5Ws!!!

This is the quickest 1/8 mile pass EVER on a 10 1/2" tire, import or domestic...

Beware, Billy Glidden, Team Titan is coming.

At least that's the message your Agent takes from learning the Florida-based Titan Extreme 10.5 team laid down 4.202-seconds test pass at 173.70 mph this past Saturday at U.S. 131 Dragway in Martin, MI. For those not yet paying attention, that's the quickest eighth-mile pass ever on 10.5Ws!

The Titan boys opened Friday with several good passes, including a then-best 4.25/171 combination before wrapping up with a remarkable 4.203 at 173.50 that included a 1.03 60-foot time. Crew chief Brett White then decided that engine had "a little stress" on it so, "We put a fresh bullet in on Saturday to continue testing.”

Good call. Saturday's testing yielded a 4.24 at 172, then the second 4.20 of the weekend and an unofficial class E.T. record.

Titan owner Nero Deliwala told your Agent that hooking up the 10.5-inch tires can be "tricky," so that's why he wanted to get in one last test session before heading to Norwalk for this weekend's 2nd annual ADRL Gatorz Ohio Drags at Summit Motorsports Park.

"We have a quick car, but making passes is what the rest of the field has and why they are consistent in various conditions," Deliwala said. "I want that consistency--we have a quick car.”
