Big Chief and the NHRA???

Chris1529 · 06-20-2016, 07:44 AM

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!!!!

The entire class of Pro Mod is a freak show. Way too many cars getting into the wall but it packs the stands. Don`t usually give a rat`s *** but I will be pulling for Shearer. Hope he makes the show.
