Charlotte 4-Wide (3 Viewers)

[Professional Fan]

from my experience it has good and bad sides. the sounds are awesome but when 4 fuel cars leave the starting line and 1 smokes the tires or has something happen our brain automatically focuses on that one. by the time you look down track the run is over and you are trying to figure who won and who ran what.

Agree with this comment. I prefer two wide but don't hate 4 wide. Would continue to go if Vegas still had 4 wide but I'm not flying across the country to watch it. The biggest issue for me is having to translate in my mind the scoreboard as to who ran what and won rather than instantly knowing as on two wide.

I feel the same way. Grateful that I was able to see the 4-Wide the times we did. Likewise, if Vegas kept it and Charlotte didn't, I'm like you, wouldn't fly out there for it either.

Surprised to see Jeff Diehl is at Charlotte with his Funny Car. That's a long-ass haul from Salinas, CA for a low-budget racer.

He was already back there running IHRA.

I noticed Speedtech is no longer on the car. When they announced the deal at the end of 2024, it sounded like a potential two car team in the future. I always hoped Jeff could get some bigger sponsorship to run with the big boys.

Anyone know if John Force is at the Charlotte track this weekend? Recall that he was surprisingly not at the Winternationals 2 weeks ago, but there was no word (that I heard anyway) as to why.

What happened to cause the heavy right turn in the lights in Lane 3??

Tire tracks look like hard on the brakes then a HARD hook right

I didn’t see him today. I thought with Rick being at the track he would be there. I hope all is well.

4 wide is a show, but it goes by so quick. My wife and the crew I was with loved the speed of the show. The track is a top notch facility, I thought Joliet had large grandstands, this place is huge. Jury is still out for me with 4 wide. I need to see eliminations.

Alex Laughlin in promod. I have no clue how he saved that car! He definitely knows how to drive!

Fast foward to 8 mintues.
