How does Bowman's track hook for you guys running radials? Looking for some experience from guys atleast running in the 6's.

I've been there once, but not with my car. We took a friend's Duster that's a grudge car, ladder bars on slicks, worked good for him.
My car is another story...heavy, leaf springs, and 295 radials on a car with terrible weight distribution and a lot of torque.

Just curious what yall have experienced.

Ran nothing but drag radial cars and even a couple trucks on drag radials there. Never had a single problem. My car 60ft better at Bowman than any other track.

i had some problems last time i was there but i changed a bunch of stuff on my front end, drop spindles, heavier t bars and higher bump stops so that could have been/still be an issue

plus my rear was doing the one wheel peel

Its was a stock motor, atleast it could take that much nitrous. Spray your car with more nitrous than it can make NA, chevy for the win. :cheers
