SCOOP: Photos/Info On The Cars That Set Records/Are Trying For Records Today

We’re the only ones on the internet bringing you this information as quickly as we are. Basically, you’ll need to look at this item each to day to see what racers have qualified to run on a record the next day and to lean who set records on the previous day. As a note to set a record, you must make a lap over the existing record speed and then back it up with another run which average out to more than the existing record speed. Once your run is made (even if it is 7am in the morning) your car goes to impound (if you are chasing a record) and you get four hours to wrench on it for the rest of that day. The next morning, record runs are made first and the rest of the program rolls along.
