Fontana changed the way they run this. It was pure torture. Over 4 hours to get through the tech inspection, another 2 hours in line to make my first run. Gave up after waiting another 2 hours for my last run.
They got rid of groups so it is a free for all for the lines. 7 lines filtering into 2 drag lines. Complete morons sorting the lines. 20 from one line then 3 from another, no rhyme or reason. Motorcycles were allowed to bypass the lines, giving them 4 - 5 runs to each run for anyone else.
I brought my nephews and never got to see them. Instead of watching the races and socializing while waiting for my group to be called. I had to spend the entire time waiting in line.
I couldn't have been more disappointed.
I had a new program from DC and the 17" wheels with the MH drag radials only shaved about 2/10ths off my time. I was disappointed with that but I was impressed with how well the drag radials stuck. Brought my 60' time to 2 seconds and I give them complete credit for the increase in time. It was actually hard to break them loose even without a burnout before the race. I burned out on the first race and didn't on the second. They stuck great.
Beat a Toyota Tundra by a good bit on the first race and got beat by a hopped up lancer on the second.
Both races where around 14 seconds and 100 MPH. I had a good start on the truck but a real bad reaction time on the lancer.
