Right Lane: John Force Runs 4.804/319.98, Now #1

10:32 am Weather conditions: air temperature 63 degrees, relative humidity 61 percent, barometer 28.05 inches, adjusted altitude 2,748 feet, track temperature 71 degrees.

Force comes up first and gives a full pass right from the start, what a great run straight down the groove.

John Force's incremental times: 60ft-0.901 sec., 330ft-2.316, 660ft-3.302/258.57mph, 1,000ft-4.113

Coil could run a 4.80 out of the box in a snow storm. The guys just awsome.

My local guy Shawn Cowie has low ET by a bunch.

Those pictures seem to tell the tale, jackets and smoking tires when a green light is showing. By the way, it looks like the motor drive on his camera is stuck.

I hope the turnout is better tomorrow for the track's sake.
Hey Tom, testing is just that..testing and I'd much rather watch a bunch of early shut off and tires smoker nitro runs, than some Super Gas cars.

Re: Vegas Testing?

Well . . . that should certainly endear you to all of those Maters who work so hard to run Super Class cars and love doing it.

Shades of a previous version of the Mater -
