Nice going this weekend at Mission BC. for father and son team of Bob and Mike Nottingham and their 427 Fairlane. Low budget and a conservative setup but it works well. Here's a very cool video!

In the second run on the video. 9.60 @ 137.23. Off and on rain meant they only got 1 hit Saturday and ran a 9.65. Tech went way late Saturday night and they barely made the call Sunday morning which saw the 9.60. Small tire, untubbed car hooks pretty good.

As a side note, NHRA wouldn't accept their 9.70 run from Friday because Mike had SS on his tech card but forgot the EA. Car was lettered, tower and time slip had all the info and they've never changed classes but the run was tossed.
