Default Top Fuel at PBIR!!!

Tonight and tomorrow night, from 4-8PM, PBIR is open to the public to come out and see several Top Fuel teams who are in town for off season testing!

You DO NOT get to see these cars in competition unless you travel to at least Gainesville, this is a rare experience!!

I have seen a few lists of the teams that are there, and it includes John Force racing, and several other top teams.

Come on out and check it out, see you there tonight.

Yes sir, that was an AWESOME event.

Can't wait till they come back next year.

Anyone who goes to Gainesville for the Gator nationals and thinks they were right to skip this...well, you messed up

Never will you be closer to the action than at PBIR. I was literally 10 feet from the cars going through the traps at 320+. It was sick.
