More Funny Car Chaos: this time from Central Illinois Dragway (Friday Qualifying)

As reported on the home page, this past weekend saw the FUNNY CAR CHAOS gang invade Central Illinois Dragway for a no-holds barred fuel flopper fest under the lights on Friday and Saturday nights. The final qualifying showed two alky and six nitro cars in the A Field, and at least one of the alky cars advanced to the semi-final round. Parity in the ranks indeed.

On the left, it's Steve Timoszyk in the "Detroit Tiger" Monza, and on the right, it's Rick 'Big Shoe' Wilson in the "UFO" Corvette

To the left is the hard-running "McAttack" Camaro of Mike McIntire Jr., and on the right is Jim Gifford in Bill Dee's "Nor'Easter" Corvette

Two fer one here: Joey Haas (Jr) in the "Nimrod" Mustang, burning out, then staging under the careful direction of his "back-up technician"

One more take on the "Nimrod" as Joey Haas launches ... a little too close to the centreline(left), while on the right, it's Bazz Young in the "Down Under Thunder" Camaro

Another doubleheader with Mark McElwee in his "Buzzy's Nitro Bomber" (there's got to be a story behind that title) Nova/Chevy II blazing the hides and launching with the front wheels skimming the surface

On the left, it's Brian Cunningham in the "Gone Ballistic" Monza, while it's Bill Naves in his "Shooting Star" on the right

On the left side, it's the seldom-seen (lately) "One Bad Texan" Camaro of John Hale, while on the right side, it's Joe Haas (Sr) in the Lew Arrington "Brutus" tribute Mustang

On the left, it's George Reidnauer in his "Excalibur" Corvette (near lane) running against the "UFO" of Rick Wilson (far lane), and on the right, it's Jim Gifford in the "Nor'Easter" (near lane) up against the "Detroit Tiger" of Steve Timsozyk.
