He's got the wind in his face so it probably feels like way more than 210

M120Congrats Brian on the new best!
I looked at BMP's site for the rules. What cars usually make up the class? Kind of cool to see a Funny Car against a Dragster.
Also to Fred,I was rooting for you & Tim. Everyone stepped up their game this weekend! Can we expect to see those ETs all year if the weather is similar?
March 26, 2018, 12:47 PM
"The Bender"Mostly altereds and dragsters, no screw blowers and rear engine dragsters must have a converter.
There is a local TA/FC that runs there, but it has a screw blower, so he just test and tunes.
Quickest he went last weekend was a 3.78....
