Winternationals 2010

[moparchris]

Hey guys my wife and I went to the Winternats yesterday to witness the Top Fuel cars. She has never seen them in person before. I was shocked at the umber of Mopars and the number of stick cars. A new record was set in A/S which was done witha 427 Fairlane with a Jerico 4 speed. There was only 1 Hemi Barracuda there.

I thought you guys would like to see the 440 six barrel Roadrunner.

Retig Bros. and a 340 Dart

Some Challengers. A lot of Stockers had wheelie bars. I noticed that a lot of them had a lack of stickers as well.

Melrose missle at the Mopar tent. 340 Dart. Of course a Duster.

Very nice!

Looks like the weather is pretty nice. It's a good thing I'm headed your way in a couple of days; too freakin' cold here in sunny Florida...

I did see everyone of them run. The amount of wheel stand they get these cars to do is amazing! Another thing I noticed is that the 2-3 shift in the auto cars happened around the 330 mark.

Great pics Chris. Those nitro cars are an earful! I couldn't believe how loud they were the 1st time I heard and saw them. I thought the burnout was bad until they let it rip and went down the track!

Great pictures, Chris.

How about sending some of the 80 degree weather east.

I only went to the Winter Nationals twice and both times it was cold, raining and windy.
