If you\u2019re a fan of nitro burning Nostalgia Funny Cars, circle the evening of July 29th<\/sup> on your calendar. Goodguys will transform Pacific Raceways into a fiberglass forest with the biggest field of Nitro Funny Cars to ever run this event. An 8-car \u201cChicago-Style\u201d program, dubbed \u201cGoodguys Northwest Nitro Shootout\u201d presented by Bucky\u2019s Auto Service and CP-Carrillo has been booked, headlined by Tacoma\u2019s Bucky Austin and his Bardahl-sponsored \u201978 Pontiac Firebird.<\/p>\n

With driver Kris Krabill behind the wheel, the March Meet-winning team will take on the likes of Mark \u201cMr Explosive\u201d Sanders, Tim Boychuk, Ryan Hodgson, Chris Davis, Wally \u201cG-Men\u201d Giavia, Nathan Sitko and Tim Nemeth. The entire field of nitro burners will run twice during the evening with the quickest winning car in the 2nd<\/sup> session claiming bragging rights as the winner of the Funny Car shootout. It is sure to take fans back to SIR\u2019s glory days when Bill Doner and Steve Evans forged the track\u2019s place in drag racing lore with their heralded 64 Funny Car thrill shows.<\/p>\n

But that\u2019s only a portion of the explosive lineup. Rich Guasco\u2019s \u201cPure Hell\u201d will square off with Bryan Hall\u2019s \u201cTramp\u201d in a Fuel Altered match race. A fast field of A\/Fuel dragsters led by Tacoma\u2019s Drew Austin and his famous father Pat will take to the track as will the Pro Mods of Garrett Richards and Yvonne Lucas in a classic blown vs nitrous battle. In addition to the hi-powered exhibition machines, hundreds of sportsman racers will burn up the track in 5 separate racing classes.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the biggest one-day race in the 33 year history of Goodguys,\u201d said Race Director Jason Bunker. We have been staging this event here at Pacific Raceways since 1988. This will be the biggest, fastest and certainly most exciting of them all.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pacific Raceways gates open Friday, July 29th<\/sup> at 11am, and tech opens at NOON. Sportsman time trails begin at 2pm with Sportsman eliminations starting at 5pm. Nitro Funny Cars and other exhibition cars run at 7pm & 9pm.<\/p>\n
