YORBA LINDA, CA --- The biggest race of the season, the Mac Tools US Nationals, had the editors at Nitro Rewind scrambling. In addition to great Top Fuel and Funny winner interviews Nitro Rewind was talking with Countdown contenders about the upcoming O’Reilly NHRA Nationals at zMax Dragway, September 15-18. With so much exceptional content Nitro Rewind was split into two episodes. The first posted this week looks back at the Indy race. Part two will be posted early next week and preview the Countdown. Nitro Rewind: Episode 13 Indianapolis/Charlotte “When we looked at the footage there was no way we could just make one show. We have seen that if Nitro Rewind gets close to ten minutes we see a drop in viewership. We decided to split the show and we hope everyone will enjoy this two-parter,” said Ashley Force Hood, John Force Entertainment president. “Going into the Countdown we are going to continue to talk with the winners but we also want to focus on drivers both inside and outside the Top Ten. Every driver that qualifies will have an impact on the Top Fuel and Funny Car Full Throttle championship so we will try and talk with as many of them as possible.” It was a family filled day in the winner’s circle and Nitro Rewind as both Nitro winners Antron Brown and Mike Neff have their kids make cameo appearances in this episode. The magnitude of winning the most prestigious drag race is evident during each driver’s interview. This episode also features highlights of the NHRA moving tribute to 9/11 as well as footage of the Honoring Our Heroes commemorative Funny Car John Force will be racing in Charlotte.
