This track has been around forever although it was formerly known as Union Hill Dragway. They celebrated their 50th anniversary in 2008, and I've been going there since I was a teenager. Early in the week I was hesitant to go since it has been in the mid 90's with heat indices of 105+ for the past few weeks. But a cold front came through and Saturday was in the mid 80's with low humidity and lots of sun.
They had a diverse mix as usual:
A few Junior Dragsters -
Lots of smoke -
Some wheelstanders -
Some dragsters, both old-school and new-school -
And some really quick doorslammers -
NHRA rules require anything in a class that runs over 150mph in the 1/4 mile have a parachute installed. Anything that runs over 200 mph has to have dual parachutes installed. As can be seen this one has a single 'chute so it is in a 150mph class.
