LATEST NEWS:
It's been a slow start to the year for NorthernThunder.com, but we're picking up speed with our third feature of the 2024 drag racing season, the 64th annual Lucas Oil Winternationals, at in-n-Out Dragstrip in Pomona, CA. While the final rounds of eliminations were postponed today due to continuing rain in the SoCal area, there was some great on-track action over the four days of the event. We've got all of Saturday's final qualifying action from the Top Fuel and Funny Cars up on the "What's New" page, with Friday and Sunday's pics and stories to follow over the next few days.
Then it's on to the 4th annual Funny Car Chaos Classic, running at the famed Texas Motorplex in Ennis, TX. A bonus addition to the race is the inclusion of the first event on the 2024 Nitro Chaos tour. With the rules change to prohibit rear-engine cars in the Nitro Chaos category, it promises to be a wild mix of front-engine dragsters, fuel altereds, and some very fast blown and injected nitro funny car entries. Of course, that's in addition to the 47 already pre-entered Funny Car Chaos racers. All told, there's 76 pre-entries between the two divisions, with more expected in the two weeks left before the biggest flopper race on the planet takes place.
And did we mention that we'll have not just one, but TWO photographers on hand to capture all the on-track action we can handle? If you can't be there in person, then check out our coverage on NorthernThunder.com, begining on Friday, April 5th.
