It looks like the butterflies did not close until he was starting to make the right turn. Was the throttle stuck?

Great job on the video, Les. I wonder if NHRA is considering putting a couple rows of used tires in front of the scoreboard poles.

I bet the cameramen on those scissor lifts needed a fresh change of underwear. Any idea if they're in the same place today? I bet not.
