Well, this is going to be fun!!!
If I understood Brian Lohnes correctly on the TV announcement last night, the elimination rounds from the New England Nationals will be contested during the qualifying rounds at the Thunder Valley Nationals on Friday, June 9, and Saturday, June 10.
Following is the information currently shown on nhra.com:
  • Thunder Valley Nationals Q1 on Friday, June 9, at 5:00pm EDT (2:00pm PDT), will be a normal Q1 for both Top Fuel and Funny Car
  • Round 1 eliminations from the New England Nationals will be contested during Q2 scheduled for 8:00pm EDT (5:00pm PDT) on Friday
  • Teams will then have an extended turn-around time between elimination rounds because Round 2 eliminations from the New England Nationals will be contested during Thunder Valley Nationals Q3 scheduled for 2:00pm EDT (11:00am PDT) on Saturday, June 10
  • Round 3 (semi-final) eliminations from the New England Nationals will be contested at 4:15pm EDT (1:15pm PDT) on Saturday
  • New England Nationals final eliminations in Top Fuel and Funny Car will be contested during Thunder Valley Nationals Q4 scheduled for 5:30pm EDT (2:30pm PDT) on Saturday
Got all that? Confused yet?

All I know for sure is I'm going to be busy Saturday evening getting both an updated NHRA "Pick 'Em" game points/standings posted for after the New England Nationals, and then doing the Thunder Valley Nationals qualifying recap totaled and posted.

What does this mean for you, the players?
Your New England Nationals picks are already determined. No changing.

Those counts can always change so please keep checking to make sure your driver selections are competing in this event.
