NHRA Racing INFO

Didn't the NHRA implement some rule about when the body goes off the chutes have to deploy immediately? I thought I remembered something about that a couple of years ago. Or maybe it was just one of the teams that did that?

Anyway... I race at Englishtown (where Scott was killed). Before I put discs on my car I had a hard time slowing down before the last turn off. And that's on a 110 MPH car, not a 300 MPH dragster. Since I put the discs on I can take the first turnoff, which I must better in my opinion.

When Long Island Motorsports Park was open, they had one of the longest shutdowns I'd ever seen. I used to be able to get off the gas after the finish line and then coast and be almost stopped by the turnoff (which was at the end of the track). The first time I raced at E-Town I was surprised as how short it was.
