Great air this time of the year
I love the smell of burning rubber this time of year.

To be so well educated you sure make some ignorant posts sometimes. :doh:Quote:

Doug Kalitta set the track et record at 3.646 also.
For sure. Can’t describe it. At the first one we had a lady sitting behind us that had never been to a drag race before. She had been to many NASCAR races before. I tried to warn her what was going to happen but she didn’t believe me. When the first quads came she started screaming at the top of her lungs. She asked what was that. I said nitro dear. She wanted to know if she was having a heart attack. I said it was from the vibrations from the carsQuote:

Any one remember Eddie Hill? Top fuel record holder on both land and water. He had some big time accidents racing both back in the day and was a pioneer in several safety devices.

A little sarcasm. I guess I need to denote everything as parody or sarcasm. I personally would not drive one a 16 th of a mile.Quote:

Was in Vegas a few weeks ago. It's awesome
I think Bristol is my favorite track. Not only is it beautiful there but the town is a great place to visit. Free tip! If you sit up high in the chair seats, take advantage of the free cart rides that take you from the parking lot to the top of the stands as well as from the staging lanes to the top. It's a long pull from the tunnels to the upper rows. :laugh:Quote:

This explains a lot
I think they remove a throttle stop used for the burn out, and maybe turn on the max. fuel pumps.Quote:
