What were the officials thinking? The turn-around time for the Nitro division--TF & FC was ridiculously fast, given the warm conditions. Many drivers had issues with blown engines and malfunctions and with such a short pit time, not every one was able to make it back for the next (LAST) qualifying heat!!! Several who did, still had problems.
There is no need to rush these teams during "qualifying". I get it for when the elimination rounds come, but many fans come out to enjoy all the racers--not just those that escape peril !!!.....I mean a paltry 4.88 for a TF to qualify for elimination is...well.... embarrassing!
Get it right NHRA.....or consult with NASCAR!

Favorite moment: When every team gets to showcase their wares (car)--w/o silly interference from "officials". @
