My friends (the black) car had a $10 mag cap break, which resulted in the car going bang towards the finish line.

Thanks Mike. Do you know if both bodies were able to be repaired? I was surprised the first boomer car wasn't shredded. Saw crack in the body, but thought maybe it could be repaired.

I’d say both are now wall art

You’re welcome Cliff. Both were beyond repair. Here are some images for you.

Thanks Mike. Wow..... I hope both teams get back on their feet soon. Was interesting to me that the one engine photo shows only 1 magneto. Is that how they run this version of the Funny Cars? I wonder if maybe these teams could run nostalgia F/C?

Is the Chemical Warfare body one of the Russo's old bodies? It looks like an older Impala body with the Russo paint effects.
