Fredde no1 in Pro Mod 6.13

air is stupid, so we intimidate it with more horsepower - Dale Pulde quote seems pretty applicable!

ahh well bumped, cracking 5.94 from Micke G

Positive shakedown run from Chris Andrews; looking forward to a full pass from the Brit this weekend

Fredde, 6.04. Worlds quickest and fastest pickup re-sets the bar!

A 3/4 pass is all that is required :-)

Erm, how quick? Leif Andreasson 5.55 TMFC!!! dayyymn

Pretty impressive from all of the pro classes, really. Having the top 12 all 6.20 or lower in PM after just two qualifiers is outstanding.

That Pro Mod session looked epic.

True. Think he clicked it just after the eighth. Hoped for improvement in session two but looks like only 4 ran?

Agree Pro Mod looks awesome, pity our top UK drivers not there in the mix also (note... not a criticism!)

259.7 mph I think ? Erm... pretty fast.

(NHRA record currently around 267mph)

nb... happy to be corrected folks.

Hmm do we think every record is going to fall this weekend? Think there's 5 or so on the first half of records already!

Forget all the politics etc....you've got to give the swedes one thing, they built a damn good track!

Im stunned at this - thats such an amazing time for something thats not the lastest Camaro clone.

Some really clever aero tricks but still nothing compared to the new slippery cars, Fred's making a whole bunch of power! Pretty sure we'll see a 5 this weekend from the big ol truck The mph shows how bady it suffers in aero, 6.04@232 when Johan and Micke G are 240+.

Sweden 2 England 3

Sorry couldn't resist.

The Man i cant take my eyes of in Pro modified is Bruno Bader, 2 extreamly fast consistent passes ok a bit slower than the top runner, but with his quick reaction time he will be hard to beat. just by turning up at the startline puts alot of pressure on his competitors.

Top Fuel, Qualifying Session 2, 12 cars on the entry list, 4 make the show, 3 fail and 1 makes an almost-representative run. This class isn't working. Pro-Mod is so much better!

[transcontinental]

...even at pointless 1000ft, TF can't get down the track.

1/8 mile time just 1 1/100th slower than micke G at 3.94 yet almost two tenths slower at the stripe... hes just doing what he needs to, never looking for the hollywood pass just racing his own race, looking after his stuff....racing smart
