of 208.17 wasn ’ t enough to bump Santiago ’ s 210.21 to secure all four records .
The 5.546 E . T . moves Melendez into the sixth spot in the DI Top 8 for quarter-mile Turbocharged vehicles and La Natty is now ranked sixteenth quickest for ALL quarter-mile doorslammers of any kind !
“ TURBO TODD ” MOYER IS NOW UP TO 228 MPH !
The steamroller which is the current team of small tire turbocharging pioneer Todd Moyer and chassis and engine builder Carl Stevens , Jr ., just won ’ t quit .
Texan Moyer had Stevens ’ New Jersey-based chassis company , Xtreme Race Cars , update his 2014 Jerry Bickel Race Cars-built Camaro and then install one of Stevens ’ Xtreme Racing Engines , a 524 cubic inch Hemi-headed powerplant of a completely new design using twin 88mm Precision turbos legal

for most associations in conjunction with its M & M Turbo-Hydro 400 “ lock-up ” transmission in which all three gears are used .
The duo debuted at the North East Outlaw Pro Mod Association ’ s season finals at Budds Creek , Maryland , ( before the World Cup Finals ), and clocked a 3.58 at an astonishing 227.08 mph , the fastest Pro Mod speed in over six seasons !
Moyer then headed to the Professional Drag Racers Association World Finals in Dinwiddie , Virginia , where Moyer set his third new PDRA National Speed Record of the meet at 226.73 mph on a 3.573-second pass which was a mere five thousandths of a second slower than Melanie Salemi ’ s two year-old 3.568 PDRA World Elapsed Time Record .
At the recent 30th annual FuelTech World Street Nationals at Orlando SpeedWorld where turbochargers up to 98mm were permitted , Moyer decided to stick with his trusty “ Precision 88s ”. That ’ s when “ Turbo Todd ” ste Low Qualifier , Low E . T . and Top Speed of the event by dropping five consecutive 3.5-second bombs on the sixteen-car Pro Modified Eliminator field including back-to-back 3.563-second shockers at speeds of 228.46 mph and 228.61 mph .
Those passes moved Todd to fourth in the DI Top 8 List for eighth-mile Turbocharged vehicles in both elapsed time and speed . In fact , Moyer is now ranked as the fourth fastest production car driver in eighth-mile history . Bearing in mind tuner and engine builder Stevens , ( the first eighth-mile door car pilot ever over 230 mph ), is still ahead of him , it would seem the pair will be adding a new member to the exclusive 230 MPH Club soon .
