sonoma 2026 (10 Viewers)

Good racing; lots of drama but for reasons that escape me that track never was quite right on Sunday. It wasn't hot; mid 60s with cloud cover at the E1 kickoff and mid 70s with cloud cover during the semis and finals. I don't believe the track ever got over 110. Yet there were more than a few smokers - Kalitta, Reed, Stewart, Hart, Millican, Gordon, Prock, Vandergriff, Capps, Beckman, Wilkerson, Hyde - and during the later rounds several Pro Stocks were doing the watusi. Not one TF pass the entire weekend in the 60s and only two 3.80 passes in FC, both 3.89.

Didn't make for a bad weekend, not at all. I simply expected better from one of NHRA's big-number tracks given the favorable conditions.
 
Jordon made three 3.80s in qualifying and qualified #1 at 3.84
And TF losing the Friday Prime Time session was the reason for no 3.60s
