Don't know if anyone got down to the drags tonight but it wasn't a bad show.

Phil Lamattina 4.66/309
Darren Morgan 4.77/311
Martin Stamatis 4.81 (and one hell of a big blow up)
Phil Read 5.09

Should be good to see eliminations tomorrow.

I assume u had ear muffs on then ?

I considered some vids of the top fuelers but feared bleeding ear drums if my fingers were on camera not ears.
