Welcome
to our photo coverage of the NHRA SuperNationals,
held May 31st - June 3rd 2012 at Old Bridge Township
Raceway Park in Englishtown, NJ. We'll be starting
our visit with Friday qualifying. Thanks to NHRA providing
us with access to the photo area for Friday we got some
great up-close shots of the fuel cars. On Saturday and
Sunday we concentrated more on the Sportsman classes.
We had a great time and we both had the pleasure of meeting
many drivers, both Professional and Sportsman.

was the ESPN2 camera crew. |

Somebody
in the stands kept going, "Pssst, hey Prock, over here..."
He fell for it every time. Those rascals! |
