Annual Indy Top Dragster scramble is about to begin (7 Viewers)

[Mike]

As of when this post is created, there are 42 TD entries at Indy.

Commence guys figuring if they can run in the 6.teens, and dropping like flies. When all is said and done, watch entries shrink down to 34, maybe 35 if lucky.

Happens. Every. Year. for this class.

i LOVE to watch Top Dragster at Indy with all those quick cars. I refer to it as the "6.10 Nationals," as it feels like a 6.10 Index heads-up category (for all intents and purposes).

does it fill back up just prior to race? and are a few of the 42 (over quota) shown on list now end up being place holders?
maybe someone needs a grade pt. or two from the brainerd race to get in? ...... at least the recent mandated rule
of minimum e.t. of 7.25 is not in play
..... or does indy qualify 40 TD's between 6.10 and 6.15?

quickest 32 without going faster than 6.10.

It’s a 32-car field.

PDRA event in Bristol had a great TD field.

Bump for the Elite 16 was 3.85 Bump for the next 48 was 4.39 Over 80 cars total

The list just bumped to 43.

Again, this is highly unlikely based off history of late drops, and there is probably going to be someone(s) running 6.0s, maybe even quicker and dq'ed from the weekend...
but if everyone shows, there would almost have to be a rained out qualifying session to not have an all teen field.
