2019 Dodge NHRA Mile-High Nationals Super Gas champ Todd Nielsen
In 1994, Todd Nielsen defeated the near-unbeatable Scotty Richardson to win the Super Street title in Topeka and a quarter-century later, he returned to win a second national event title in Denver. Nielsen, in his ’90 Firebird, put together a solid run in the final that included a .018 light and a 10.511 on the 10.50 Bandimere index while opponent Kevin Moore was close behind with a .032 light and a 10.520 in his ’34 Chevrolet roadster. Nielsen got to the final following a quarterfinal victory against Michael Miller and a semifinal win against Ethan Conyers, who fouled.
