[ELA-RE]

Tony Schumacher completed the biggest comeback in NHRA Drag Racing history and clinched the 2006 POWERade Top Fuel world championship with a national record final-round run that has to be considered the greatest quarter-mile pass of all time. Entering the final needing to win the race with a pass quicker than 4.437 seconds, Schumacher and crew chief Alan Johnson delivered with a stunning 4.428 at 327.98 mph to defeat Melanie Troxel and earn the championship by 14 points over a devastated Doug Kalitta.


The coverage was shown on Foxtel and i couldn't believe Schumacher's run, those guys in the NHRA know how to setup a car.

And the look on Kalitta's face when Schumacher ran the time was priceless :p

Thats what you get when Alan Johnson is tunning your car a total weapon.

He's had the fastest T/F car for the last decade.I liked the 337.58 Mph pass more.:)
