I wish. Too many rules to run anything other than a dedicated salt racer or race car.

Slaughter Motorsports Southern Cross streamliner on one of it's first runs from the start line.

Turn it up and listen to the gear changes and watch how much of the track it uses.(best on PC not Phone)

Check out this bike rider, the comments going around was that the start line were advising the track crew if he comes off that he had started without his right foot.
He's run a best of 121mph
