2008 NHRA kick off at Pomona - Merlin - 08.02.2008

Urs hat Platz 14 geholt.
Left Lane: Antron Brown Runs 4.560/326.16, Now #1
Right Lane: Urs Erbacher Runs 5.952/160.40, Now #2

Brown makes a statement with his first National Event pass in Top Fuel. A little stuff from the engine on the top end, but still good numbers. Erbacher's car was slow off the line and clicks it early.

markus,

2008 NHRA kick off at Pomona - Benni - 09.02.2008

The qualifying procedure for POWERade Series events has been altered.
Only the top 12 times will be officially recorded after the first day of qualifying.
That leaves four spots unclaimed. The top 12 times will not be locked in, however,
and racers in that top tier can still be bumped or moved in the order during the final two qualifying sessions,
where the final four spots will be earned for a full 16-vehicle field.

Warum es diese Änderungen gibt, weiß ich nicht genau,
vielleicht um zu verhindern, daß die abendliche Quali-Runde am Freitag schon zuviel entscheidet,
denn da werden -wetterbedingt/kühler- meist recht schnelle Zeiten gefahren.
Bis dann,
Benni

2008 NHRA kick off at Pomona - The lonesome Dragstripper - 09.02.2008

Left Lane: Urs Erbacher Runs 4.786/310.05, Now #16
Best prior run: 5.952/160.40, Was #17
Right Lane: Doug Kalitta Runs 7.311/109.97, Now #13
Best prior run: 4.647/315.34, Was #13

Erbacher will be evaluating his overall performance after this race and then decide whether to stay in the US for the first five NHRA races. He'll then return to Europe to his defend his 2007 TF Championship. He makes a full pull this time and makes a nice improvement in ET and MPH. Kalitta strikes the tires and clicks it off.

Da gibts geteilte Meinungen, ich selber finds auf den 1. Blick auch doof,
aber die NHRA wird schon ihre US-spezifischen (Wetter?) Gründe haben.
Bis dann, und weiterhin Daumen drücken für Urs,
Benni
