Monday Testing (1 Viewer)

[Just Paul]

Force cars ran, Hight had the best 60' I can ever remember for a funny car with an .871.

On a sad note, Kevin Poynter who was driving for Herbert got into the wall about 1100'.

From the Session #8 notes :

While waiting for the MAC Tools Dragster to fire, we have an update on Doug Herbert's Snap-On Tools Dragster: Kevin Poynter is fine and the team is disassembling the car to assess the damage from the hard impact with the wall. From here, it appeared that something broke to send the car into the wall abruptly on what looked like a good pass until that point.
3:51 p.m.

Did John or Ashley make any runs, maybe Ashley's car isn't done yet.

Did John or Ashley make any runs, maybe Ashley's car isn't done yet.

Left Lane: John Force Runs 10.650/67.57, Now #0; No Prior Run

12:05 p.m. Weather conditions: air temperature 68 degrees, relative humidity 41 percent, barometer 28.79 inches, adjusted altitude 2,341 feet, track temperature 79 degrees.
What better way to start the day than to have John Force in the first car out. I don't know if he will attempt a full pass, will be surprised if he does. John's new car isn't done, so he is running Ashley's car.

The car shook hard and danced on the tires, then headed for the centerline and John clicked it off.

John Force's incremental times: 60ft-0.919 sec., 330ft-2.729, 660ft-5.023/091.20mph, 1,000ft-7.703

Wasn't he the first TAD into the 5's? Great to see him step up to TF, good luck to him.
