Here is some stuff from last night at Summit Night Under Fire. David Oakes
A sold out crowd packed Summit Motorsports Park for the 38th Annual Kelly Services Night Under Fire. Six Nitro Funny Cars, Jet Trucks, Jet Funny Cars, NDRL 7.0, Gassers along with $100,000 worth of fireworks lit up the night. John Force Racing used the day as a hard test session as both he and Courtney made multiple test passes. The night became a little interesting after the first run of Chris Darnell’s Shockwave Jet Truck, but racing was completed and Courtney Force ran a 4.002 in the funny car final to defeat Matt Hagan’s close 4.046.
