Only if people will stay in it and hit the .850 under. Racer #33 in a 64 car field has to be at least .850 under for mineshaft. Folks may want to reread the AHFS information on NHRA competition page.

I agree Larry... Better understand the Mineshaft Rule! Whether in Mine shaft rule comes into effect or not, The weather conditions are gonna be (mineshaft) crazy good ! There's gonna be a whole lot of being careful going on ....I wonder how many triggers will get hit ?

Remember 1.20 under still gets you an automatic hit!

at the great MONTGOMERY thanksgiving record event it was -758 and we had a 10-12 mph tailwind ....

i believe 52 cars set 198 records ... teardown was still going on when 1st round was called next day ... only 18 cars ran eliminations

i had never been in the 13's ... i thought they gave me someone elses et slip for a minute

captain

have fun boys !!

So when is Nhra going to recognize that a 7second sticker trying to slow down at those speeds before the finish line is a high safety issue.
