Teach a Novice: NHRA, High Speed Drag Racing

How Fast Did he Really Go? NHRA drag racing breaks barriers.

Are You an NHRA Novice? Now might just be a great time to learn how and why men and women race to the finish line; sometimes over 300 mph.

How much money did he make? NHRA drag racing bring in big bucks; how much?

Professional drag racing is a spectator sport. Stands full of happy crowds waiting for the roar of the engine from their favorite drivers’ pit. Besides being able to make your way to a grandstand seat, there’s a lot to learn when it comes to the finer details of who wins and who loses at drag racing.

Who’s paying the bills? NHRA sponsors cough up how much?

First of all, Mello Yello is the national sponsor of the sport of drag racing. Whenever there’s a televised national event being held, Mello Yello will be well represented as such. So, sponsors don’t mean much except to fund the big budgets of some of the teams. Depending on the class they plan to compete in, money will play an important role in being competitive. “It takes dollars to make dollars in the drag racing business, my friend”.

Continue following these short segments as I take you through what it’s like living a drag race lifestyle.

2011 E.T. Drag Racing at Royal Purple Raceway

The newly crowned Royal Purple Raceway (formerly Houston Raceway Park 1988-2010) has a complete series of competition drag races scheduled in 2011. These competitions are a part of the O'Reilly E.T. Bracket Racing Series which attracts drag racers and their vehicles of different speeds to compete on the same track for cash prizes and great awards.

The 2011 O'Reilly Auto Parts E.T. Bracket Racing Series hosted at the new Royal Purple Raceway in Baytown, Texas will be one of the drag racing series we compete in during the drag race season of the NHRA Division 4, South central region.

Bracket racing is the incubator for professional drag race teams that had their start back at the beginning. Bracket racing budgets are millions of dollars less than those of the highest priced Top Fuel dragster teams but the competitions are as close if not closer than any other classification of drag racing.

This is where young drivers learn to go 100, 150, 200 and 300 miles an hour down the track on their way from rookie to champion of the class. Imagine jumping out of a plane without a chute and it would be similar to getting behind the wheel of 8000 horsepower drag race engine inside of a million dollar car without doing run after run after run of bracket racing and sportsman racing up through the classes of vehicles as more power is introduced to go faster.

E.T. Bracket racing lets drivers choose their time. That means they must tune their drag race vehicle to reach the end of the track at a prescribed time. Using a handicap start, the host track controls the starting time. This gives a slower vehicle a head start before the faster vehicle gets to leave the starting line.

Everything rides on the finish. Whoever gets to the end with the closest time to the time they chose without going faster wins. Going faster does not win any races here but getting to work on time will will every time.

This racing is very exciting and gives everyone an equal chance to win or lose. Competitors in the series throughout the year are also racing for track awards and points which can be turned in for cash or and/or an invitation to the Bracket Team Championship held every year at the Division 4 Summit E.T. Finals at the Texas Motorplex in Ennis, TX.

Super Pro 4550 Robin Fitzhenry-Walsh will compete in 2011.

I'm heading to my facebook profile and then to Twitter to retweet some of my friends news from today.

Introducing the NEW Royal Purple Raceway in Baytown, Texas

I am many things and I scour many topics. This is one piece of news that I caught right on time. It seems like I've stepped outside myself because I didn't hear anything about it until it was said and done. I'm looking at the future while standing in the past.

From wikipedia

Houston Raceway Park is a quarter-mile dragstrip in Baytown, Texas, just outside Houston. It opened in 1988 and hosts the NHRA's O'Reilly Spring Nationals. It has a seating capacity for nearly 50,000 spectators, with additional grandstand seating brought in during major events.[1] Houston Raceway Park's pit area holds approximately 400 racing rigs, with additional pit parking available on grass. The spectator parking lots have a capacity of over 10,000 cars, along with a special VIP parking area capable of holding an additional 600 vehicles.

In 2000, Houston Raceway Park opened a new world class high banked 3/8 mile dirt oval track at the facility.

The track is owned by the Angel Brothers of Baytown, Texas.

*Announcing the arrival of the NEW Royal Purple Raceway in Baytown, Texas; formerly Houston Raceway Park*



Facebook OLD * NEW
Twitter OLD * NEW (no new one yet)
Website OLD (gone) * NEW

Coming off the renovation and construction of new seating, club and I over heard restrooms, the Angel brothers have renovated the name of their race facilities (drag-strip and dirt track) in Baytown, Texas from Houston Raceway Park to Royal Purple Raceway.

The new raceway is better than the old raceway but the new name isn't as good as the old one. The old one didn't advertise anything but racing and today it advertises racing and Royal Purple. Welcome to Houston, I mean welcome to Royal Purple.

There's commentary on the way things are done for everything. Taxes go up and we want them to go down (I bet you didn't know) even after they go down. We would just as soon go back to the old ways of doing things if we could because the old ways are better; more value. I for one agree with some of it as long as I have a fast connection.

I have to stop on this type of matter if I want to look back and then look ahead at what the future holds for mass produced commercialism. For what it's worth an old name is worth more than a new name in the long run. The LONG run.

Maybe a name change is good. I think about names and changing names and think to myself that the old name must have had a problem. If you had too many nick names I bet you'd be wanting to change your name too. I know, my name is Francis. But I didn't hear of any problems with the old name and now that there's a new name I think I know why the old name is gone. But everything is the same except the new club, seating, AC and restrooms. Right?

So maybe it's in the name but then again maybe not. I don't know because I don't know anything; just that Houston Raceway Park is dead from a purple heart.

Houston Raceway park becomes Royal Purple Raceway

Top Sportsman 4556 is fixed.

Over the off-season the Stallion of the stable had major work done to it's legs. At the race before the national last year she broke the rear-end to pieces which wicked up into the transmission too. The force was so hard the output shaft was twisted around itself where it slid into the transmission connected by some very strong teeth. Those teeth were all wiped out.

The rear-end was in pieces but the housing and axles survived the event; so did the motor. We tore out the rear-end right away and the transmission too. Now that it's all back together it started with ease. Filling the transmission taught me a lesson I thought I already knew. I got some fluid spit up at me from stupidity. That is all.

The season is only a full moth away and a week or two. I'm ready to get on with the show!

BDR Racing | Team Nitrousfitz | Updates for this week in February 02/08/10

Next weekend we'll be watching NHRA from California, and pulling a transmission from the Top Dragster (@topdragster on Twitter) 4200. This in preparation for the best year on record for BDR Racing and Team Nitrousfitz, the online stream of information from a local NHRA division 4 drag race team from Houston.

The Top Sportsman (@topsportsman on Twitter) 706ci BB Chevy Corvette just finished fabrication the new plenum scoop plate that will increase airflow significantly. Testing the new part will commence next month at Houston Raceway Park's March test and tune (see a previous post for the time and date).

Our Top Pro 4550 (@racinga468 on twitter) is ready to begin bracket racing (ET) in March as well. This year expect to see this car in the winner's circle more than once in 2010. The race to be the best doesn't stop in Texas, it stops in California.

Other than that, the work that began a few months ago at the end of the 2009 NHRA drag race season is coming to and end. The work we did this off season will propel the team even farther this year.

The biggest races this year will be the two NHRA national events which will have top sportsman and top dragster in the line up. Keep watching as we get closer to a National event in Houston for Top Dragster and a NHRa national event in Dallas which will feature top sportsman.

I recommend that you become friends with the author on Facebook to see images and videos of the 2009 season.

Pamona 2010 (14 days and counting)

Pamona 2010 Kicks off the Full Throttle NHRA Drag Race Season in 14 days

You know it. The NHRA is back on again in fourteen days and that means that for Team Nitrousfitz and B&D Racing, the season is just a few short weeks away. Right now, the off season was filled with things to do. "It looks like the season will have it's own obstacles too, new and old. The Chevelle project is moving, but appears not to be finished by the time the 2010 drag racing begins for the three drivers and their team at Team Nitrousfitz and B&D Racing. Both dragster came off the end of last year with solid runs. SP4550 is ready right out of the box to win the first race a Houston Raceway Park. The News is big this year and the opportunity is great.

If you didn't know it, the NHRA is introducing Top Sportsman and Top Dragster to the lineup of races at National NHRA drag races. This makes it possible for two out of the three drivers of Team Nitrousfitz to have a showing at a national event this year. The registration procedures are making it hard for us to get in the race, but if this pattern continues, we will surely find our way into all the division 4 national events that feature either the Top Sportsman or Top Dragster classes. "It's what the team was built up to do, to get into the races involves having good results at other divisional events and attendance at more circuit races throughout the year.

We will be watching when we can, and racing when we can, all year. Come and say hello! Give us a shout out on your own blog, or just come back and read what else is going on down here in Texas. We're "Racing for Money" in the NHRA with three different class vehicles, Super Pro 4550, Top Sportsman 46 (2009), and Top Dragster 4200, Team Nitrousfitz.

- R Fitzhenry-Walsh

Getting on with NHRA 2010

We're waiting for the last minute I guess. The work that is going to be poured into the team this year is just now getting straight in my head. What, with all the other work that went on during the off-season, the new year of racing is just about here and we look forward to getting all the cars back on the track as soon as they are ready. "So, who's ready?"

Super Pro competitor 4550, Robin Walsh is ready. Her dragster had a great year last year and the driver is getting more seat time and experience at winning against some of the best competitors in Texas. So let's get going with the going already..

The other two vehicles will still need some hand time before either one gets a pass down the track. The 662 needs to have the transmission pulled and set for a new trans-lock solenoid. This dragster has run some of the quickest qualifying times against the best of the West, but this year will prove to be a year for wins and no losses.

The 7065 BB Top Sportsman entrant had some extensive work done to the plenum under the hood scoop. What might have been lacking previously is an amount of air volume inside the scoop to be available when getting to the top end of the track. Look for faster time trials than ever before with this high quality drag vehicle maintained and driven by team leader B Fitzhenry. Look for the whole team to come together this year and pull out some high quality wins, even at the first of the national NHRA events to host Top Sportsman and Top Dragster in 2010.

The Power Letter was created by FD Walsh, crew member and teammate to the whole B&D Racing family of drivers and equipment. 2010 is the year we've been waiting for.

NHRA South Florida Test and Tune 01/2010

The 2010 NHRA season is close enough to its beginning for the best teams in Top Fuel dragster and Nitro Fuel Funny cars to go down to South Florida for some test and tune runs. The biggest news coming out of the practice is Larry Dixon's 3.76, 322.22mph at the 1000' stripe, making it the fastest recorded run within the new 1000' track length.

The Al-Anabi dragster tuned by Alan Johnson, formerly of Schumacher, looks to be on top this year if anyone can catch them then maybe Schumacher and Brown can. This year look for faster runs but also some bigger problems when these teams reach their limit on their way to the championship of 2010.

Houston Raceway Park to Hold March Test Session

Houston Raceway Park will be offering a March Test and Tune session for NHRA, ADRL, and IHRA teams. The track has been using the off season to make the facility even bigger and better than before. While some improvements to the streets and highways surrounding the track are still being worked out, the owners have announced the addition of it's new media facility and convention type meeting amenities. Now that more sponsors can find a reason to bring clients and fans of their company out to the track to see the competitions, more and more local and national companies will be searching for an opportunity to place their name on some of the best teams in the region.

Look for B&D Racing to bring their team out to the track for a weekend of Top Sportsman and Top Dragster time trials and tuning for the up-coming NHRA national season which will feature the addition of Top Sportsman and Top Dragster into the national event lineup in Houston and Dallas this year.

1969 Chevrolet Malibu 307 OEM Tonawanda Chevy Team (Engine & Transmission Pull)

Well, we're bound and determined to find something to do through the end of this seson and into the off-season here at Nitrousfitz Racing HQ. Here's a little diddy about a virtually mint condition 1969 Chevrolet Malibu 307. Very limited miles (under 50,000), but needing to have a number of original gaskets and linings replaced to eliminate leaking from the oil pan and the transmission pan. The vehicle looks original. Paint and body and trim are all VF12 with some chips and dings in a still clear finish. Here are some shots from today's work and the images that we will compare when finished.

I will list the three manuals that we have from 1969. Return for the latest update or subscribe here.
