Firebird Raceway, Boise, Idaho
- August 15, 2010: After putting Steve Mack in the Nitro Thunder
Firebird at last years Nightfire Nationals, this year Jack was
back in the seat and managed to quaify for the tough 16 car field
with a 6.194 at 228.94. Fighting a mixed bag of weather, the
powerful fuel funny car smoked the tires in round one sending
Harris to the trailer early.
Ken Gentry, former Good Guys
Tech Rep, was at Boise making sure all Funny Cars and Dragsters
were legal.
