Did I miss the press releases or did these guys just show up ?
You might want to go to Drag Race Central | Presented by Summitracing.com 1-800-230-3030 and scroll down the page to fast photos, then click last 100...
Take a look at Hannes Wernhart... UHHHH!! He blowed it up alright...
Hannes used to run TA/FC...D-7 And James Day, not sure but sounds familier, I believe also another TA/FC pilot, but no one else has been able to answer your questions yet either Jim...

Re: Vegas Testing-

REVISED-
J.R Todd- 3.040 @ 276.08 To the 1/8th
Note- Most runs to the 1/8th this year have been between 275 @ 278++ I think there was even an 80 in there, but I cannot go back and find it...

Session #8

Nothing of note...
But I may have to revise this as well...

You betcha I was-The sixty foot time was the same as but the 330 and 660 foot times were better than Schumacher's 4.485 run last weekend in Phoenix (not as good as the 4.441 run though).


You guys at DRC make it so easy for us data geeks.

Don't worry Ray-if I had my way, NHRA would have clocks at every hundred feet, if for no other reason that it would make my job when I spot in comp easier-of course, having to enter all of that data into my computer wouldn't be as much fun.

But during the week drag strips could be used to test car handling. Oh one already is-CT Dragway, or what used to be CT Dragway-it is now the test track for Consumer Reports. Went by it just last month.
