Pretty much take your 2500 hp car, put a 6 inch drag radial tire on it ,take 2000 hp out of it to get it leave the starting line, then ramp it back in and don't prep the track and see if you can get to the end without hitting the other guy or the wall lol . Little sarcasm there lol. Definatley makes it entertaining for the fans and they do draw huge fan base . It's Definatley the craze right now that's what everyone is talking about for sure .

I have seen monster trucks drag race as part of a "show" just like jet cars. Maybe that was when Feld had IHRA.
IHRA also has some "dancing backhoes" at Rockingham one fall race.

Like other posters have said though, right now, these guys draw a crowd.

Just Curious!

How did Englishtown do with the Summer Nationals.
It was on TV and looked fun.
Did they have good attendance..

Saw a good deal of people but some empty seats.

Broadway Bob used to run monster trucks during NHRA points meets at Union Grove.

I think it is all good....Go big ChÃ*ef...fact of the matter is...if you want to be considered fast....it is not street racing.....go to Indy. You are either really fast or you get your az handed to ya. Hope you are fast, but don't think you will be close. GL

Pro Mod does require grade points and the bad part is they get a grade point for getting their lic. So if he has a lic. which I doubt he could have entered on Wednesday. So we the sportsman racers get bent over again for some freak show NHRA is now promoting. Funny how the rules change to benefit them at the blink of an eye!!!!
