Full-time NHRA Top Fuel pilot John Smith drove the recently completed “Sasquatch” nitro flopper Trans Am, co-owned by Steve Allred and Virgil Hartman.

Steve Nichols, of Newark, DE, made the long tow to SED twice, showing up for the original show as well as the rain date. He was rewarded for the effort with a 4.601 secs pass at 151.02 mph in his Mill Road Boys 1970 Camaro flopper, powered by an Ernie McClain-built 427 Chevy with 90 percent nitro flowing through it.

Lancaster, KY’s Andy Applegate hand built this 1948 Fiat Topolino with a blown alcohol 396 in 2001 for Good Guys 7.60 index action. He went 5.30 at 127.55 mph over the eighth mile at Southeastern.
