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

Congrats 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?



Cool

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....
