Del-Wow!

[Professor Dave]

3.735-his 3.76 is a backup! Too bad he wasn't quicker on the tree!

I'm following it on live timing!

Wow just WOW!

AJ is a bad azz dude. 3.73 Unreal. I feel bad for Del.

.828
2.107
2.989
286.50

3.735 and sleeping.... ouch!! Del and AJ have a rocket... I wonder if this will get him the private jet ride back to Santa Maria?

 

[mick]

Just wow is right!.....unbelievable!

 

[Dave]

Amazing!!! 2.989 to the 1/8th mile!! That finally breaks Gary Scelzi's record from Halloween 1999! 286.50mph to the 1/8th too. Wow. That is THE quickest pass of all time right there. Should have been a nice 4.38 on the scoreboard in the 1320.

 

[Rajunz]

Dang, that really sucks for Del to loose that one, that's a 40 point swing. The record helps him in the points though, it's not over yet. Definitely would love to see Del get a Championship.

I dare to say if it was 1320 it would be the first 4.39. 100% a 4.40 and change. I won't say 4.38, Doug's 4.420 was a 3 flat to half. It's questionable if that run was the first 4.3 but as i said 4.40 and change absolutely

Nah, would have been a .39 or a huge explosion.

 

[paoldtimer]

and now to "see" it that close...WOW!!

 

[Dubs]

Unbelievable! One of the coolest runs I have ever seen, for sure. Talk about bitter sweet

 

[Rat]

But you see what we're doing? I am not the only one that misses and am used to and still try to convert to 1320. Drag Racing needs to go back 1320 and I really don't care how far we turn back the clock. I think everyone would agree that I don't give a crap if we gotta break into the 4.999's again, just get us back to 1320.

Can this please not be the millionth go back to 1320 debate. Zzzz.

Let's face it: When NHRA started establishing records for 1,000FT and when other countries started going to 1,000FT too, it's the nail in the coffin for 1/4mile nitro racing.

You guys are really not going to derail this thread are you?

 

[mike]

My jaw is still on the floor. 3.735!!! When my sister woke up this morning and I told her, she just stared at me in shock and went "WOW"

 

[Rat]

Yea i'll derail anything I want to. It's staying 1000ft why? because no one challenges it anymore and just accepts it. It's the same group that thinks the guys in Glendora are perfect and that NHRA made a great deal with ESPN
