As usual, the action was intense, as the lot filled up earlier than ever with some sweet Mustangs, both old and new, as well as Lightnings and some big trucks, too. There was quite a variety, including a 9-second '86 GT, a 2000 Cobra R, a new Shelby GT500 and much, much more. The Hooters' staff was on the money, and I believe everyone there had a blast. Of course, the burnouts went into full swing around 7:30 and lasted for quite some time. There were more blown tires than ever before, and loads of smoke. You can check out some of the photos right here on our main page, and get the full scoop in our July issue in a short while. I'll admit, I was disappointed with the small turnout of only 8-10 cars in our SBS class. For 2008, the rules were tightened up big time to allow for honest street cars to be competitive, yet the turnout was weak. The payout was strong, at $1,500 to win for this type of class, but still there were very few takers. This leads me to believe that there just isn't a market for this type of class and perhaps we should forget about it for 2009. In my opinion the Pro 5.0.com-sponsored SBS is the perfect venue for the dozens of performance shops to come out, show their stuff and get some magazine coverage. Where were all the street-legal cars from the top shops? Or for that matter, where were all he hot cars with the big dyno numbers that adorn all the posts on the various websites? This was your chance, yes, you, the average guy or gal, with a 11, 10 or 9-second Stang or truck to compete. The rules were simple and easy to understand, yet very few dared to compete. This makes me wonder if there is even a need for such a class? Let us know what you think.
