The great crowd stuck around all night long and enjoyed a ton of sportsman racing in addition to the Nitro Jam show.


Pittsburgh has electric plug ins at a couple of spots near the head of the staging lanes.

Thanks for the pictures and the great reports, Michael! Two races in ONE day was a monumental effort, but it shows what can be done when it needs to be!

Congratulations to all the Champions!

YEAH it was great..
Think IHRA should consider doing more of these.
Maybe have three races, adding one on Sunday.

It was pretty slow for my combo, it was either change converters or change classes,
I chose the one which causes less work...lol

I think it's just less uphill in some areas than others! Never been fast there. Think it's at about 1100' physical altitude to boot.
