Not the usual topic for this forum but I thought I would share just the same. This is heads-up drag racing. Pretty much the only rules are: 1) max 632ci, with a weight break for small block(less than 485 inches) 2) Only nitrous or all motor allowed. That's it.
Here's the qualifying list:  And here is a video from first round, sorry, no sound as it is slo-mo: And for reference, here a pic of the #1 qualifier:  |

Looks like those Mustangs didn't beat you up this time. How did you finish?

Great showing Kevin... with a "MAN" pedal to boot!!!
 I'm betting there aren't too many on that qualifying-list that had to shift-gears on their own...

We had a technical difficulty in 2nd round.  Not to worry as I restarted and drove off the track. Just need some new rings. It sure was on a pass if it wasn't for the sneeze. LOLThat round was run at 1:52am so it really didn't matter as the race was called after that round. The Mayflies were covering the track causing unsafe racing conditions. Seriously.  |

That looks like a Funny car engine explosion. I'll bet that one got your attention? I am guessing it didn't do your new hood scoop a lot of good? Tom

"The Mayflies were covering the track causing unsafe racing conditions. Seriously." Well, at least you roasted a few of them. I was standing about 15' away when I took this vid and I had to turn away because I forgot my ear plugs. Talk about fire breathing loud! By the way, here is n2oJoe's Mustang. (It is really a show car that goes really fast)

I went to the John Holt Nitrous Race at National Trails Raceway on Friday night right after GAD18 and Kevin's car was the loudest car of the 8 in the field. That side exit exhaust really makes some thunder.
