Even if Larson never came back to DW, he's clearly "The King of Drag Week", despite what the clueless OKC clowns say about Lutz (who has yet to win it).
That said.. I suspect we'll see Larson this year.DW2013 - DNF (Gateway - trans failure)
DW2014 - SR BB/PA class winner!
DW2015 - Finished in 1 piece (for once!)
DW2016 - Still "Fox Free" ;)

If I was going to wager a guess, I would say he will be there, but as Doug Cline's co-pilot.Life is short. Be a do'er and not a shoulda done'er.

On another note.... i keep hearing and reading of the OKC boys are for sure going to be in on DW this year. Are they guaranteed spots, have uber fast computer/internet skills for registration... or maybe an early link to registration? maybe they will have Discovery channel tow them the distance.... like for the episode to California? ;)

Lutz new machine is now supposedly 1000 lbs lighter and according to the video on his FB page they made 2140hp with 28lb boost. His goal is 50lbs. What kind of power will he make and what times will he be able to put down?
Larson can't compete with the pro mods of 2013 with his 2012 setup, whats he gonna do to step it up.

I think the only issue Lutz will have with the Evil Twin is the aero factor. It might be 1000lbs lighter but its still a 57 Chevy trying to go well over 200mph.
I think Lason is out, he made it clear he didn't like the composite body pro mods. Lutz jumped in the camp of "if you can't beat them Join them" with his new ride.1968 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S 340 with a 360

This could have been a joke not sure, but at autorama i heard something about larson building a promod S10. like i said could have been sarcasm, I've looked it up and can't find anything recent from larry. What about Bailey is he defending his mind blowing title?

I heard he went back with the blower and the pink paint scheme.Id almost bet money he will do what was said.Ride with Doug.Doug ran a 6.98 a few weeks back on a soft tune.Dougs Camaro is my dark horse pick for this year.Plus them 2 together are like Laurel and Hardy.

Yea Larson is definitely building it up with a turbine.1 Photo
