NHRA - National Hot Rod Association

While David Rampy was busy wrapping up the Comp national championship at the Division 2 event in Reynolds, Ga., Clint Neff was busy winning in Dallas. Neff wheeled his K/AA ’32 Bantam roadster to a final-round win over Will Hatcher’s swift six-second A/DA in the final with a (-.536) 7.65 to a (-.431) 6.62. Neff entered the final carrying .05-second worth of Competition Index Control penalties, while Hatcher was down a tenth in index following his round-two win against Kevin Self. Neff’s path to the final included wins against two-time Indy winner Brian Browell, Keith Mawhee, and Don Thomas. Neff has now won three NHRA national event titles.
