They are on a incredible run the last few races. Amazing what they are doing with what they have.

That was at Huntsville (Alabama) Dragway last weekend. The track prep was good and the air was cold. The racers had to endure a Friday that was rainy all day after getting there Thurs afternoon, and make up for it by racing Sunday after the cold front came through. I think both 315 and X275 records were set there. BTW, there was a little headwind.

My home track. Were lucky it is still open. They used to come to HSV to set records and now the tradition continues. In N. Alabama track prep has been a competition lately.

as a person with limited drag racing knowledge I noticed in the rules that BB mopar is limited to B1 style heads. what exactly does that mean or is it just to eliminate hemi style?

Looks like it sucked the car out of the other lane and into the wall.

What a pass!

Depends on the class. Many HEMI powered cars run in the top radial classes, with either blowers or turbos

And YES, Brad's car is THE most impressive drag radial car out there right now..........but did you see Hancock's 60ft number beside him before something in the motor let go and put him in the wall..............On a 315 radial, Hancock was .996......holy shizzit.
