Ned Dunphy Claims the Throne as the Quickest Average in Drag and Drive – Sick The Magazine Breaks Down the Top Ten Averages of All Time
A lot has happened in the twenty-one years of competition of drag-and-drive since Hot Rod Drag Week got the train rolling in 2005.
On that first year, Carl Scott averaged an 8.581 at 157.13 mph after five days and over 1,000 street miles, and the community has expanded, more events added, and the averages continue to improve over the next 2 decades.
Ned Dunphy’s winning average at the recently-completed Hot Rod Drag Week, a 6.175-second performance, takes the top spot from Jeff Lutz, who held it for nine years!
That got our minds chugging – just how quick are the best ten averages in drag and drive history?
