Nobody I know applied this year. They've changed the rules also, only 10 gallons of gas instead of 15.

I haven't heard....I know that white C-3 was working hard to try and make it again this year. I heard he was deep in the 8's already and looking for more.

I'd love to see more on that balck midyear too....


I tried last year,,,,,,but they were pretty clear that if you didn't already have the NHRA stuff in place..it wasn't going to happen!


I wish they would have a separate class for N/A so we could watch some all motor cars do it. Last year there were a couple in the 9's. Nitrous makes fast stuff, but there are so many variables that N20 can cover and make still run fast.

You've got the potential Jerry, you just need to use it. I think that single digit ET might do it for ya. I know last year they turned down lots of mid-high ten second cars.
