We lost another racer Friday.

Neal Parker passed away after a crash in his TAD Funny Car during qualifing.

Our condolences to his family.

Wow, that is just a shame.  What a tragedy. Looks like a problem with the chute.

I think they need to shorten this track just a bit, say to the 1/8th-mile mark for anything going over 200mph.
