The next event is the 32nd annual Dodge // NHRA Nationals, Sept. 29-Oct. 25, at Maple Grove Raceway in Mohnton, PA. As always, your picks must be posted before the start of Pro Qualifying that is scheduled to start at 1:15PM EDT (10:15PM PDT) on Friday Sept. 30. The entry list on NHRA.com currently shows 16 Top Fuel, 16 Funny Car, 17 Pro Stock and 15 Pro Stock Motorcycle entries but those are always subject to change by raceday.
If you made any changes to your 'locked-in' picks this week and didn't specify the changes as new locked-in picks, then you'll reverted back to your previous 'locked' picks for the Dodge Nationals and beyond.
Post your picks and good luck!
'jimw' (FBBO) has not posted any new picks for the first two events of the "Countdown". By game rules, he's been parked for the remainder of the season. I hope he returns to play again next year.
(update 09/26/16) Entry list now shows 19 Top Fuel, 16 Funny Car, 17 Pro Stock and 17 Pro Stock Motorcycle entries for the Dodge Nationals.
The Top Fuel field now includes Larry Dixon in one of the Rapisarda dragsters - a car he's familiar with from driving down under in Oz.
