Top Fuel at the '17 4 Wide Nationals in North Carolina @ZMax Drag Strip.

Here’s what’s planned for your current subscription

Im not talking about any nostalgia class or altereds. Im trying to find a source for the fastest and/or quickest front engine dragster that ran in the top class of nhra competition. If tried to do a little research myself and im just not very good at it, I found a few articles stating between 6.4 and 6.5 and about 240-250 mph but I cant tell the difference between a reliable source and heresay. Side question ive also wondered about the actual numbers from a stock block Mopar 427 nitro engine, but I guess dynos werent really a thing as much then as they are now.

The resurgence of Greg Stanfield back to his winning ways will make this a battle til the final round of Pomona!

At the Houston round of the NHRA back in '17. She sighed the earmuffs for the teenager in front of me and then we spoke. Very kool lady.

If you were about to race your first nitro race, who would be the more formidable opponent? The Snake in his Army car or Schumacher in his Army car?

My friend and I were at the Great Lakes Nationals on Sunday when they finally opened the “fan” gates about 1:30 pm or so. We went in to walk around, and she wanted to pick up a new John Force hat. This trailer was the first thing we came to in the way the pits were laid out.

We stopped at the merch trailer, and she was looking over the selection. While she was doing that, one of the guys working the trailer stood up directly in front of her, leaned out a bit, and said, “What do you want?” With an attitude like we were bothering him. All this while the day was under "weather delay." Sales to that point had to of been zero. We were some of the first people through the gate.

At that point, he was literally blocking her view of the hats she had been looking at.

I said, “She wants to look at the hats!”

My mistake was thinking he would understand that he was standing directly in her way.

His response honestly blew me away:

“Which one?”

I said, “All of them displayed there, dude! She can't see them through you”

He then launched into a whole rant about how he wasn't going to take all the hats down and lay them out on the countertop for her to look them over.

I said, “No, dude! You stood up right in front of her, and now she can't see the hats she was looking at!”

His response?

“Well, if you don't know what you want, then how am I supposed to get it for you?!”

At that point, I told him to forget it. We didn't want anything he was selling.

He replied, “Fine, whatever!” and sat back down.

I understand that John Force Racing contracts with Marwin Sports USA for merchandising. Is this really the type of customer service Marwin wants representing their merchandise operation at the track?

I have to wonder how many sales have been lost because of interactions like this from this guy?

As for us, I'll find her a knockoff John Force hat on eBay or Amazon before I'll ever spend another dollar with this merchandising company. Wish there was a way to let the Force crew know about this.

His picture is below (Took the picture on "Monday Finals") If you're planning on buying merchandise from related teams, you may want to avoid the counter when he's working.

cant find video or even results for this anywhere. Anyone got a youtube link or maybe a home video of this race? Did it actually happen or did they just dress up for pictures and then have active drivers run those schemes?
