NHRA quals show him as DQ in Denver.

What's up?

 

[JMatt]

Yup. Must've just been for the round.

After 2 rounds he now shows 17th with a 7.127.

THE OTHER THING IS THEY HAVE TO GO OUT AND PULL THE FUEL CARS OFF THE TRACK HERE. THEY ARN'T MAKING IT TO THE RETURN ROAD.

Huh. I thought everyone was saying 1000' vs. 1320' wouldn't make a difference anyway.

LMAO. What numb nuts'.

That's pretty funny that with 30 mph less speed and 320' more length, that they actually can't get to the end.

 

[JMatt]

the end of the track goes up hill

Could they get to the end last year?

It's worth wasting a few minutes now, if one of the guys need the room in an emergency later.

Don't get me wrong. I agree 100%.

I'm moking all the people from earlier threads who clearly flunked high school physics and couldn't figure out how big a difference 300mph at 1000' was compared to 330mph at 1320'.

I think it's absolutely awesome that they're stopping with so much to spare.

I saw a video where WJ was bitching the fuel cars screw up the track. He was saying "they slick it up". His exact words.
I assumed it from clutch dust?? He did say why. He was very upset they ran after the fuel cars for some reason??

Well - with the new track surface yielding new E.T. records, I'm not sure he's got much to complain about.
