Rumor on Competition Plus says they are going to run the Super cars four wide during time trials. Has that been confirmed yet? Sure would speed up the program.

Mike its no rumor, they are qualifying all four lanes for the super classes. Random photos from today. The last photo is what happens to a camshaft when the lifter comes apart courtesy Larry Hill.

Does anyone there know which lanes SS/S will start in tomorrow morning? Hoping the rain will hold off till about 3:30. Running the Super classes 4 wide, hopefully won't be a cluster #$#%.

It might speed up each session, but assuming it doesn't rain, they are being given four time trials instead of two...

Mr Derby City the nice thing about NHRA racing is your not required to watch. If you don't care for the super class cars don't watch us. ,I don't care to watch the s/ss cars run 1000-1100 feet and shutoff but I don't feel the need to make comments about how they choose to race I just don't watch and mind my own business.

Butch, I was told that stock and super stock would run in lanes 1 and 2. I have some pics from tonight but they are still uploading. Internet must have slowed way down. Didn't have any problems earlier today.

Good for you, but this is the Stock / Superstock section of the forum. In my opinion Drag Racing is a contest between 2 cars, not 4. BTW, I don't care for 1000 foot racing either.We agree on something....Yippee. ,!!

Sprinkles now from dark clouds overhead, cross your fingers !!!


Jeff Hairrington lost an engine in his motorhome 60 miles from the track. Michael Brand to the rescue. Michael picked up the family, dog included, trailer and contents of the motorhome and got them here in time for tech. Jeff and family are camping at the track.


Does anyone have a sweet deal on a new 8.1 GM engine for Jeff?
