This one is not only bad for the racing, but for the fans!! To line them up and have one smoke the tires at least lets fans see a PAIR of dragsters leave the line with a shot. I don't even care Cooper tanked it, but at least give the people what they want to see. Both semi-finals in top fuel were single runs... SAD
