NHRA - National Hot Rod Association

The tally is now 98 and counting for Sportsman icon David Rampy, who won Indy for the fifth time in his career. Using his usual conservative approach, Rampy managed to get to the final round of the 54-car field of Comp having lost just .02-second off his index to Competition Index Control penalties. Along the way, Rampy drove his Skillman Auto Group A/EA ’32 Bantam to wins against Randy Jones, David Dupps Sr., former champ Craig Bourgeois, and low qualifier Raymond Martin. By comparison, Greg Kamplain, Rampy’s final-round opponent, lost .14-second from his index, which might help explain his -.004 red-light in the final.
