Several years ago a pal did just that. Rolled in the track on a regular "Friday Night Grudge Races" evening in a 12 cylinder Lamborghini he had just finished engineering a beautiful twin turbo installation on and after waiting his turn ran 8:50 something and some crazy 170+ MPH.

Fifteen or maybe twenty years ago he and his pals were taking turns in his turbocharged 406 SBC in a 300 ZX to see who could run the best MPH. I don't remember if the cage rule kicked in at 11.00 or 10.50? but it was before the MPH rule started so they were rolling a foot or two to start the clock, counting Mississippi three times, and running 155-160+. That was a great sleeper street machine. LOL
 
there use to be a dragstrip on oahu that I was at 5 days a week back in the day during the summers before it closed. I always felt terrible for the tech guys because a guy in a 9/10 vw second "street" manx or bug would be wearing surf shorts, wife beater, flip flops, thick gold chain and be like, "whats the problem". lol. A few of them got banned from the track for literally needing both lanes to even make it down the track. They didnt care and just setup money races down the street in the warehouse area.

The corvette club had regular races every week at Maple Grove during regular weekly racing in the 80s. They had their own staging lane and ran eliminations just within the club members. One guy came in with a sleeper, he stages next to a stocker and paced him to run an 11 something during qualifying. 1st round he uncorks a real low 9. No roll bar even. Track personnel told him to park it or be banned forever.
