The latest update as of August 20, 2024

2nd annual East Coast Chaos - Maryland International Raceway - Budds Creek, MD

Running far from their home base in the south central part of the country, the FUNNY CAR CHAOS crew invades the East Coast for a special exhibition race. No championship points are being offered but at least a few of the regular contestants, and many, many seldom seen East Coast and Central racers will be on hand for a special race. Our formerly East Coast-based (Long Island, NY) photographer, BIG Bob Snyder will be on hand to capture all the action on his newest Nikon cameras. While there isn't any FLOracing video coverage of the FCC events this year, Snyder's photos will be enough to capture the flavour of this special event.

70th annual Toyota NHRA U.S. Nationals - Lucas Oil Raceway Park - Indianapolis, IN

Earlier today it was confirmed that our dedicated Colorado correspondent, Dale "Dime Store Shutterbug" Fackler, has been granted a photo credential for the running of the 70th annual Toyota NHRA U.S. Nationals at Lucas Oil Raceway Park in Indianapolis, IN. It's the annual six-day extravaganza of drag racing with over 1000 racers competing for more than $1,000,000 of prize money from August 28th to Sepotember 2nd. It's as much an endurance test as it is a performance test, with only the strongest and fittest surviving to the end of the event. That goes not just for the racers, but for the crews, the media, and the spectators. We wish everyone the best of luck, the best of health, and a safe to, from, and down the track.

59th annual Twisted Shifterz Labor Day Weekend Classic - Mo-Kan Dragway - Asbury, MO

Completing our triumvirate of events, is the championship finals of the FUNNY CAR CHAOS season at Smokin' M0-Kan Dragway in Asbury, MO. As long as our "Road Warrior Extraordinaire", aka BIG Bob Snyder, can recover from his weekend at Budds Creek, MD, we'll have tons of photos and details from the championship finals of the FCC season. There's currently 35 cars on the pre-entry list, and FOUR 8-car fields scheduled to run, so it's going to be quite a race. The top five racers in the points standings all have a serious shot at the championship crown, but everyone in the final Top Ten standings will go home with some bonus money. There's lots of bonus shows on offer with the Dirty South Gassers, the ever-popular Jet Dragsters, live music, BBQ parties, and much more to entertain the fans over the weekend.
