The former Pro 5.0 record holder Steve Matusek is on the property to try to do to the Pro Street class what he did to NMRA Pro 5.0. Dominate. The unique Nelson Race Cars built GT500 is powered by a Ford twin-turbocharged Modular 5.4L engine that is only 324 cubic inches. After having run low 6.50s at 2600 lbs, it remains to be seen if he can run the 6.40s necessary to competitive with tthe top of the Pro Street world.
In his test pass today Matusek ran a 7.066 at 208.04 in an easy hit that was likely partially affected by poor track conditions.
