Video of the Week: 10 Minutes in Nostalgia Nitro Funny Car Heaven


Video of the Week: 10 Minutes in Nostalgia Nitro Funny Car Heaven

Larry Pfister has been operating HorsepowerHeaven.com for some years now. He is in the business of making killer drag racing videos and the one he has posted from the recently completed NHRA Divisional race at Mission Raceway in British Columbia, Canada is nasty good. Apparently the track or the NHRA ran a Nostalgia Nitro Funny Car class and all the west coast big dogs were in the house.

Mission Raceway has long been known as a very fast track. It’s location is great with a low physical elevation, and killer air more often times than not. It looks like the funny car guys really threw the kitchen sink at each other during this race with lots of 5 second laps being bandied about.

These cars are amongst our absolute favorites in the drag scene right now, perhaps even supplanting Pro Mods. Who’d a thunk it?! Tim Boychuk who can normally be found wheeling a top fuel car in IHRA competition won this event with Roland Leong tuning his whip. We told you these things ruled.
