Looks like we'll see an official 3.6 this year (1 Viewer)

Based on Brittany's 3.69 in testing and Langdon's 3.700 at Pomona, I am willing to bet we'll see a 3.6 in competition this year, and maybe backed up for a new national record.

You will see a legit 3.69 this year though in my opinion. AJ or Aaron Brooks will be first.

I wouldn't count out Kalitta, either

No doubt, Shawn's 3.70 wasn't in "perfect" conditions either, which makes his run even more impressive.

If the right front comes in, we'll see this in October at Maple Grove. They are re-doing the track in all concrete!

No doubt a 3.6 this season, probably several. As to who's first....to many capable cars to guess.

I'll guess Brittany does it first in night qualifying, AJ during eliminations and the first to back it up

That translates into a 4.37-.38 1/4 mile times.

I would hope in 12 years the ET's would have dropped more than 4-5 hundreths of a second in the 1,320.

The Tire is the Weak link, Goodyear told NHRA 10 years ago these tires aren't safe over 335 MPH! Can you imagine if they still ran 98% unlimited Blower and 100 lbs. lighter like they were 10 Years ago? Scary....
