      Looks like they are about to go hot. they are going to do a 1 and done and let people make 1 pass each.

      what are these guys from the board driving so I can keep an eye out for them?

          they should be pretty early, they get to the lanes to try to be first.

                It's streaming live right now on that link.. Well, I assume live. Unless it's a replay. Anyone know how many participants they run? They're cycling through pretty fast.

                Just had a 4runner pull the front tires!

                Here, I grabbed a screen shot:

                      James runs at about 2:25 on the video. Looks like john is a few cars behind him.

                      Edit:

                      John runs a 8.46, breaking out. If they only get 1 run, his time slip will read 20 seconds :/

                          Found them, thanks!

                          8.67 @ 160.6


                          John ran 8.46 @ 164.61 but dialed in 8.51..




                          They were commenting on the fact that he wrote his dial-in on his glass..

                            Yeah. Hopefully there is some time once they get everyone down the lanes for a second run if he can talk them into it. Shit, I'd be out there drying cars to help try and speed it up!!

                              the joke is that the Street race small block power adder class is limited to an 8.500 time slip since you cant have a funny car cage in the class rules. It's one of the larges classes, and the competition is really tough. There's no "dial in" on the class, but john put it on since that's pretty much what you have to run to win the class. Randall won it last year with an AVERAGE of 8.53 for the week.

                              sadly, John was in for the win this year, and it ran a bit faster than he needed to, so without a slip, he has to take a 20, and that knocked him out of the top ten for sure. That class gets a special entry to the NHRA even in Charlotte, and he probably wont get in to that now.
