(Words and\u00a0photos by Doug Gregory) –\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>When we go to the June event I\u2019m bringing my db meter just to prove something.\u00a0 I think the number 9000 Geo Metro is the loudest thing out there.\u00a0 Those three little cylinders must be screaming for mercy along with the sounds of combustion.\u00a0 The unofficial track-lapping machine has to be the number 9138 Mercedes.\u00a0 If I remember correctly he tallied over 12 passes on Sunday alone.\u00a0 Definitely getting his money\u2019s worth at the Ohio Mile.<\/p>\n One car that had lots of people gawking at it was Clark Rosenstengel\u2019s twin-turbo, LS-powered Camaro.\u00a0 This thing sounded like an un-muffled, big-inch big-block.\u00a0 Despite being setup for drag racing it managed to easily earn its way into the 200mph club.\u00a0 He says he\u2019s bringing it back to shoot for 230.<\/p>\n Quietly slipping into staging Sunday morning was the number 9320 Mustang.\u00a0 This very-impressive piece of work is powered by a twin-turbo small-block Ford and won the Super Street class for the Hot Rod Top-speed Challenge with a run of 222mph through the traps.\u00a0 I expect this thing to go quicker.<\/p>\n Lastly we\u2019ve got to mention Ransom Holbrook and his resetting of the all-time top speed for a nitrous assisted motorcycle.\u00a0 His unassuming gray bike went 244mph early Saturday morning.\u00a0 Wow.<\/p>\n Remember me talking about diversity\u2026?\u00a0 How about a turbocharged Ford FE in a RX7\u2026\u00a0 Awesome.<\/p>\n Enjoy the photos.<\/p>\n
