Chris Rado FWD in the 6's?

Rumor has it that Chris Rado has broken the 6-second barrier at Pomona this past weekend in his FWD Scion tC.  Though there is some controversy with the 60-foot time on the slip, making this pass "unofficial", the truth is Rado's tC has been groundbreaking and on the edge of 6's for a while now.  We're extremely excited to be seeing it at the upcoming NSCRA event at Palm Beach International Raceway and hopefully he'll be setting some records there.

The Drivers's Experience: Chris Rado

If Tommy Milner is racing driver as machine-introvert then Chris Rado is the opposite: he's all heart and soul. His whole approach to living is quite unlike anyone I've ever met to be honest. This is a guy who lives for speed and excitement... in all aspects of his life. It's no wonder that he's starting practicing yoga... he needs to, otherwise he's likely to self destruct from all the wildness rattling around inside of his soul.

Chris Rado/World Racing Time Attack Car

Yes, that's a giant wing on the front of Chris Rado's Time Attack car! Chris Rado and World Racing was out at Willow springs over the weekend, and they were able to capture first place in the FWD class, beating his last year's record by nearly 5 seconds and taking 5th overall.  Oh and back to the wing, many people said it was crazy, some people didn't think they were serious, but the numbers speak for themselves.  This weekend was more of a testing and setup session rather than competing, but they have done a great job!  Chris Rado and World Racing will be out at Buttonwillow next.  Check out more pics of the crazy wing after the break.

Chris Rado's Time Attack Car Exposed

This past weekend, Chris Rado brought out his newly finished Time Attack tC to display at the Scion Exposed Event over in Sarasota, FL.  The car featured a widebody, an aerodynamic front splitter and rear wing to keep it planted on the track.  Combine that with the HRE Wheels and Brembo brakes all around and it's something to just feast your eyes on.  This should be one mean machine once it hits the track.  More pics after the break.
