This week NHRA is running in Concord, North Carolina. About 1.5 hrs from my house.
They wouldn't let me test my 1993 Daytona during their qualifying sessions, but here is a treat. LOL

Time slip from Mike Salinas, see picture.

On Friday, John Force, the 16-time Funny Car world champ, went a blistering 3.850-seconds at 334.24 mph in his PEAK/BlueDEF Platinum Chevrolet Camaro SS, eclipsing the track record of 3.851 set by his daughter, Courtney, five years ago, while the speed was the fastest ever in both nitro categories. .

Some results of full qualifying. Fast air this weekend.
