In the semifinal round of Outlaw 10.5 action on Saturday evening at the Ultimate Outlaw Shootout Series event at Milan Dragway, Jason Enos lost control of his beautiful and popular 1967 Mustang, slamming nearly head on into the guardrail just beyond the eighth mile finish stripe at a high rate of speed and causing extensive damage.
The venerable duo of Steve Petty and Tim Lynch wasted little time putting their brand new Corvette ZR1 in victory lane, grabbing the Outlaw 10.5 Wally at the inaugural NHRA Unleashed event in Commerce, GA in just its second outing.
The ADRL is about to be invaded by another new Mustang that has been outfitted with the power plant of choice – a Brad Anderson Hemi. Anyone who has followed the ADRL knows that BAE Hemi’s with a screw blower make noise on the track and in the record books which has been exemplified by Chuck Ulsch. Now Dan Millen is the next racer to try his luck with the screw blower.
Come on inside for a look at a car that has recently been brought to our attention. A mere few hours ago this machine rolled out the door of the chassis shop for the first time and most likely will be heading to a track near you very soon. Look for more details as this beautiful Camaro hits the strip.
Tim Lynch and Steve Petty have had a stranglehold on the Outlaw 10.5 competition with their big inch twin turbo Mustang over the years, but now they’re bringing an all new car to the table after selling their old record-setter to the Kasper race team. Now it’s time for a new ride, in the form of a Corvette Z06 built with 670 C.I, some monstrous 94mm turbochargers..
Do you like wild wheelies and 3000 plus horsepower? Then Dragzine has just what the doctor ordered in this installment of Putting it on the bars: 101. It takes great courage and some really large…well you get the idea. But in all honestly this is one that you will not soon forget. Come on in and check it out.

Gary White, at the controls of the Team Titan Scion, unleashed on the Extreme 10.5 field last weekend in Virginia, blasting out four laps in the 3-second zone to practically dominate the field and grab the win. Check out the video inside
Jason Enos made some long-awaited test hits with his gorgeous 1967 Mustang at New England Dragway last weekend, running a 6.86 and following it up with a quicker 6.76 in the first three passes with the big block, twin-turbocharged ride.
Today we take a look at some of the wildest rides in the history of Outlaw 10.5 Racing. We know we could never cover them all but these are surely some memorable moments of the sport. From huge wheel stands to out of control crashes we have it covered, so come on in and check them out.
Whenever the factory rolls out a new body style for a car anywhere near as popular for the Mustang, there’s always that crowd looking to go after the ‘first to do…’ honors. Whether it be the first to bust into the 10’s in street legal trim or be the fastest guy using that particular body, it’s a neat little accomplishment. Now, that may not be the case in this ‘10 Mustang build for the Outlaw 10.5 class, it’s certainly one of the first ‘10 Mustangs going with a build this extreme.
Anthony New has acquired a fox body Mustang that is being updated and receiving the finishing touches for competition on the ORSCA Outlaw 10.5 trail. Power will come from the same engine as his former ‘88 Mustang, a Proline-built 540-cid BBC with twin turbochargers.
One way or another, everyone is always trying to step up their program. Whether it be building an all new car or revamping what you’ve got, it takes lots of money and perseverance to continue to go after it year after year. For Greg Blevins Jr, the necessary step he felt was needed to work his way to the top was a switch from single to twin turbos on his Outlaw 10.5 Mustang.
The land down under has brought us so many racers and race cars over the years that caught the eye of the general public. It appears that the outlaw racing bug has bitten the Aussies as there is a flourish of cars being built and headed to the tracks in Australia. Domenic Luppino’s Mustang is one of them and has been as fast a 7.04@202mph.
Dave Murphy kicked off his racing career in the Pro-Street scene, though after some time he was ready to change things up with an all new car. Trading off his ‘56 Chevy for this turbo small block Mustang that’s already been proven to go low 7’s in the quarter at almost 200mph, Dave hopes to get used to the whole new world and become an Outlaw 10.5 contender in the future.
