March Meet 2021 poster --- March Meet in May poster

We've fallen victim to a modern inconvenience: a sloooooowwww wi-fi connection at the motel, as Dale Fackler is slowly sending us the results of all his hard work from the grandstands at Bakersfield yesterday. We've got one photo so far, with Dylan Winefsky making a test pass in father Robert's "Nitro Moose" AA/Fuel Altered. The plan is for 16-year old Dylan to finish licensing in Tucson, then take over the reins from his dad, who's making his final driving appearance at this year's Good Vibrations March Meet.

Making one of his first launches in a seriously powerful AA/FA, young Dylan tests the Famoso traction


We lead off today's photo coverage of the March Meet with the always popular 7.0 PRO class, then it's straight into Junior Fuel, followed by A/Fuel Dragster. Note that two combinations are allowed in A/Fuel: injected on nitro or blown on alcohol. Junior Fuel is just injected nitro with small block (mostly Chevy) engines.
