Great to see the 2007 season is off and running. good to sit down and watch these guys fight it out.
Today before the race they also showed a spedial on 2006 season spills and thrills, there was some great crashes and plenty of burns, awesome camera work. |

Stunning watching the top fuels regularly crack into the 4.4x times now. I remember when a 4.99 was almost unheard of! Now a 4.99 wouldn't get you into qualifying.. in Funny cars!

Been waiting since November for this race. A mate of mine who is now living over in the US called me from his "cell" phone just as Force and Cruz were doing there burnouts so i could hear it, unfortunately force lost but it's always good to hear it "live".
How about a AFF NHRA trip to Las Vegas in Oct/Nov to visit SEMA/AAPEX and take in 3 days of racing????? |

What a great opener for the season.
some awesome racing over there, and some big upsets too. 2 weeks for the next race meeting. Worth spending the money to have foxtel to watch these events as we dont have anything like that here to see. |

Yep, couldn't believe when I flicked to ESPN and only missed 30 min. of it. How good is J.R Todd, I think he's a good chance of winning the season, especially after last years. He's the giant killer and as for Scelzi, I think he was lucky that Robert Hight crossed the centre line.

Good to see Gary go over there and have a go. Those bodies he was taking were great. Awesome artwork.

Top qualifying with 4.51, well done to Larry and team. |
