Kris, almost. The quickest D/S run to date is by Danny Byrd. 10.31 @ 126.36 from the Belle Rose event this year.

I thought there was a B/S or C/S Z28 running.
Have they hit the 9's yet?

No doubt about it, thats what class racing is about. 2 different combos, dead on each other!

Wade, You are so correct. Racing like Wally would have wanted it.

George and Wade, right on the mark, as close and as competitive these two cars/ guys are Gateway/ NHRA should have scheduled a good old fashion two out of three match race. I’m sure it would have been a crowd pleaser at least with the S/SS group.

Perhaps if they are both going to be at Bowling Green later in the year something could be arranged?

Match racing...what an awesome idea! How about if equal class and the top two cars are within .03 of each other in qualifying, they race for 2/3 heads up for the class win? For all classes! Can you imagine the crowd appeal, the racers stepping up to the plate appeal???

[69Cobra]

That would be cool!!!

Jim, it would be nice to have a match race at Bowling Green. We are a low budget team. If you looked at our operation you will see the reason why we don't do much long distance racing. My partner and I have not planned on making the race at Bowling Green but we will try and make arrangements to attend. Like many of the racers today, the high cost of diesel is killing us.
