Top Dragster is FAST @ Indy

August 29, 2019, 08:33 PM

Wow - the bump could literally go to the 6.2x tomorrow morning if the Racing RV's dragster or one of the other 2 break the #32 qualifier's 6.3x time.

Just Wow!

Not as fast as our D4 Race this year in Houston yet where #16 was a 6.131.
I think if everyone at the bottom runs to their potential I see a 6.18 or so bump.

Talking about a 32 car field not 16 car field.

My post was only referring to the top half of the field. And I also said "yet"

That's what blows me away! 16 is 6.15, with one squirt left! There are 32 cars that showed up to this race that so far can all go faster than 6.3x. And counting! What a great bracket race! I really figured interest in this class would start slowing down as the top guys started ruling. That just hasn't been the case. The bottom guys just keep getting faster.

How about Sneaky Pete sitt'n at #2

Be a cool win at Indy and if I'm not mistaken would take him to the top of the charts on classes won at NHRA Nationals

Looks like a couple of those D4 guys got the throttle stop on to go 6.11 @230+ LOL

Fast bump for sure but not 6.20! You will see it will be revised.

I'm going to guess 3.79 or so, although I have never been that quick.

Typically mid 3.90's but it can vary as some get the et early and others with big top end charges over 230 MPH.

1, 2 and 3 in TS could have made it into the TD field. Boys that is flat flying.

How would you like to be #17 with a 6.133 and not have lane choice....

The quickest 660 time in Qualifying was 3.892!

Most cars were in the high three nineties through low four seconds.
