 On that diesel streamliner I believe it ran earlier this morning and didn't very very very well... somewhere in the 220s very well!

They set a new T-III record of 455 at Speedweek, and bumped it up to 482 at World of Speed.

So, yes!  Take it to impound!

 I'm really not a reporter. Rik  I won't try pronouncing his last name driving that the Stella body type streamliner just ran a 390 something with a for something exit. There are a lot of record-setting runs this morning!

The lines are fairly long however the temperature is fairly cool.

You don't have to pronounce it - just type it for us!

But seriously, what's a "Stella body type".

The 911 roadster just left the starting line. Imagine what a freight train on nitro might sound like and that will give you an idea of what everyone heard. He pulled the shoot out about the 2 mile may have lost the motor unfortunately.

Possibly Rick Yacoucci at 398 in the five with a 409 exit
Unless it's crazy, ambitious and delusional, it's not worth our time!

Courses on hold while they clean the track. Currently 72° here on the salt.
