- We’ve been waiting for the 64th annual Good Vibrations March Meet since 2020 and despite inclement weather forecasts the event proved to be everything we hoped it would be. We tagged along with Rich Guasco’s ‘Pure Hell’ AA/Fuel Altered team and consequently, we're in the thick of the nitro action of which there was plenty.
The March Meet can trace its history way back to 1959 when it was under the sanction of the Smokers Car Club and was known as the US Fuel & Gas Championships. It was always an ‘outlaw’ event that attracted the biggest names in drag racing from ‘Big Daddy’ Don Garlits to Don ‘The Snake’ Prudhomme. The race was always known as a Top Fuel race when sometimes more than 100 fuelers attended. These days, however, the TF ranks are much thinner and this year there were a dozen diggers as well at 23 nitro-burning Funny Cars and 13 Fuel Altereds of which Pure Hell was one. Cost, of course, is a factor. Just the fuel to get the rigs and people there has almost doubled since 2020 and a 42-gallon barrel of nitro was rumored to be $1,900 at the event. Pure Hell, as an example, uses six gallons of 90% nitro per run and they made five runs-you do the math.
