About 35 minutes after Rachael ran her "just-for-fun" final pass of Drag Week 2016, Ross Dudley pulled his Road Runner up for his first pass of the class car session, and decided to make a just for fun pass as well.
"Did he just purge the nitrous?" Rachael asked me as we watched from the stands.
"Yeah...he sure did, and he hasn't used it all week so maybe he just wants to go after your 11.30 best", I joked.
The big B-body torgued over pretty hard and ripped down the track to an 11.390-119.95!
"Well", Rachael laughed, "He might take that time slip back to Canada and show it off to his buddies, but he can't turn it in!"

Ross spun pretty hard on his second pass, and then had what appeared to be fuel delivery issues on his third, so his official Friday slip ended up as his slowest of the week, but that first run was a keeper!
