RTRA Spring Nationals

When outspoken doorslammer racing star Steve Jackson bolted a set of radials onto his 3.7-second Pro Nitrous Camaro, you had to know things were going to get interesting at the RTRA event at Northstar Dragway down in Texas, and that they did, as Jackson roared to the Radial vs The World title, resetting the record several times in the process. Jackson went 3.81, 3.80, a 3.79, and finished it off with a stunning 3.75 in the final round in what was the quickest side-by-side race in history opposite of Rob Valden, who went a career best 3.80 in a losing effort.
