Top Fuel and Funny Car Session Two

 

TOP FUEL Q2 SATURDAY

 

This event was unlike any other in that you had the last two qualifying sessions and three rounds of racing in one day. That is a ton to ask of any nostalgia nitro team. But, here we go.

 

Under sunny skies, Q2 was led off by Canadian Phil Ruskowski powered by a SBC and 2017 Top Fuel Champion Jim Murphy.

 

 

 

 

 

To this point Jim Murphy may well call 2019 his "Snake Bit Tour". At the hit there was nothing, the throttle stop was not removed. Its a good thing he's Gentleman Jim because I can think of many other drivers who would not shrug this off.

Neither run went as hoped.

Out next was Adam Sorokin and Pete Wittenberg.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wittenberg got everyone's attention carding a 5.70 to move in right under Mendy who sat out this session. Sorokin continued to flounder.
