Expect World Records to be BROKEN at East Coast DoorWarz with Outlaw 10.5, Outlaw Drag Radial, and X275 Cars April 21-22!

Expect World Record Breaking Numbers at Maryland International Raceway's East Coast Door Warz on April 21st-22nd    April 12, 2012    Press Release courtesy of:  Chris Matters   The biggest stars in the world of Outlaw 10.5 racing will be making a return to MIR at the East Coast Door Warz. The last time they rolled into MIR in the early fall for the Ultimate Outlaw Shootout, there was a great show in which we saw the world record taken down and reestablished with a 4.140.   Richard Sexton in his ScrewBlown GTO will make his return to MIR in hope to be the first car in the 4.0s. Hot on his heel will be teammate Chuck Ulsch, who holds onto the 3 lowest ET's ever posted! Michael Martin, who holds the world record for a NOS car with a 4.23, recently turned in a 4.143 in testing and looks to put that number on the board during an event to make it legit! Hot on his heels will be Mo Hall and Harold Caldwell looking to leave MIR with the title of fastest NOS car. Will Tom or TJ Kasper leave with the record? Recently the pair at Gil Christy motorsports made the switch to Disomma power and is looking to make waves. Twin Turbo Tom knows his way down the track winning the World Cup Finals in 2010 and Kid Kwik is a two time runner-up at MIR events.   Lots of new cars will make their debut and many series regulars from Cecil and Atco's programs will be in attendance for their first race of the season. This is one NOT to miss.   The roots of Outlaw Drag Radial can be traced to the cars of the real street program at MIR in the late 90's and early 2000's. Since then, the sport has to morphed to what it is today. Big names like Fox, Johnson and Vretto have made their bones in ODR duking it out at MIR for years. Recently, southern racers have begun traveling to MIR to test their mettle against the hometown stars and the track known to be the best in the country for putting down the power!   In the fall of 2011, "Fast" Stevie Jackson and Kevin Fiscus were locked in a points battle for the championship with the Ultimate Outlaw Shootout and came to MIR to settle it. Kevin arrived with the world record, but Jackson left with it. 4.325, that is where the bar was when the smoke cleared. Jackson is on record as saying, "When someone runs a .20, it will be at MIR." Could it be this weekend?   That same event saw Paul Major in a devastating crash in the finals where he managed to run a career number during the race at a 4.39. Quickly fixed, he made it out for the World Cup Finals where he managed a 6.58 @ 224mph in the 1/4 mile, a hundredth of a second off the world record. Expect for Major to be a factor at the end of the night.   Rickey Fox recently strolled down Broadway establishing 4 world records at the same time. For a NOS stock Suspension car, he now is the fastest and quickest in the 1/8 and 1/4 miles. 4.432 @ 169mph and 6.821 @ 182mph makes him the first NOS car in the 6's! To quote Rickey, "It's going 30's next weekend."   Expect the biggest and baddest cars from Florida to New York to be in the house to see who reigns supreme for the baddest street car in the world.   A week ago, X275 kicked off its season at MIR's Speed Unlimited Midnight Madness with a BANG! 27 cars made the call to the lanes including "King" Jack Collins. In his first ever visit to MIR, he managed to run 155mph in the 1/8 mile and set the track record with a 4.73, barely a hundredth off the BBNOS world record. Current world record holder Rich Bruder has been busy at work in New Jersey with Brother Nick and Mustang Mike getting a new bullet put together to be ready for this race. Their F1X procharged mustang holds the record at 4.658 and looks to take the bonus for breaking their own record.   "Bad" Dean Marins and his BB powered mustang - fresh off his win at the Civil Wars - will make the trip from New England to take his first trip down the famed MIR strip. Locals Justin Smith and Bobby Flippin, known as the "Dream Team", are looking to defend their turf! Bobby - fresh off his win Friday night - ran a career number 4.79 and Smith has found the groove with his F1R powered car cruising to a 4.78 last Friday. Both cars feature the LSX power and look to be a factor in the end.   Eric McMillon has vowed to bring both "Vader" and "Skywalker" to the track. "Vader", the turbo car driven by Eric, has long been a hot topic in X275 since it debuted early last year with a 155mph blast. Eric will be looking for a winner's circle appearance at MIR, but will be opposed by his own car! "SkinnyMan", otherwise known as Matt Mongal of Racecraft Inc. fame, will once again be behind the wheel of "Skywalker", the grey mustang that holds the record for a SB NOS. Featuring a SBF with Induction Solutions N2O systems onboard, he is holding it down with a 4.722 and looking to crack the 4.60's first with the NOS car.   Handy Boys Racing will make the trip from North Carolina to make an impact; as will Chris Evans, driver of "Big Green". A one time track champion, Chris ruled 2010 in X275, struggled in 2011, and has recently found new life with the F1X blower onboard!   Don Barnett and his Vortec blown Firebird set a career number first time out with a 4.85 while teammate Ron Rhodes put everyone on notice that the 23 degree cylinder head cars are here to play with a 4.81. Ron currently holds the distinction as being the fastest 23 degree cylinder head NOS car, and running leaf springs to boot!   Expect a large turnout in X275. In the past, 40+ wheel-standing, bumper-dragging cars have made the ride looking for career numbers. This is going to be one race you have to see to believe!
