National Sand Drag News - National Sand Drag News | The #1 Source For Sand Drag Racing News | www.NationalSandDragNews.com National Sand Drag News (NSDN) is an online magazine covering the sport of sand drag racing. NSDN’s full array of up to the minute news and race coverage can be found online at www.NationalSandDragNews.com. Here is a brief explanation of what NSDN covers. The fast growing motor sport of sand drag racing consists of race cars that are very similar to their asphalt drag racing counterparts racing down 300 feet long (100 yard) tracks with a sand/dirt surface. The headliners of the show are the Nitro-burning Top Fuel dragsters that cross the finish line in under 2.5 seconds and reach speeds in excess of 160 MPH. Although the Top Fuel cars are the headliners of the show, multitudes of grass roots bracket racers compile the largest racer group in the sand. NSDN focuses on the hottest properties in sand drag racing, including coverage of the Pro Truck Nationals (PTN) series and other large independent events. Other large independent races across the country are also covered. NSDN covers these events with live race updates, race results, news, features, race videos, and photos. https://nsdn.us/index.php 2024-07-16T02:50:10+00:00 National Sand Drag News editor@nsdn.us Joomla! - Open Source Content Management SCSDA Soboba March '16 Video Highlights 2016-03-25T09:54:22+00:00 2016-03-25T09:54:22+00:00 https://nsdn.us/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=907&catid=132&Itemid=61 Administrator editor@nsdn.us <img alt="" src="https://nsdn.us/images/stories/issue3-16/sjvidlead.jpg" style="width: 250px; height: 85px; border-width: 1px; border-style: solid; float: right; margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px;" />The March 2016 SCSDA Season Opener marked the first time National Sand Drag News has experimented with live streaming video from trackside during an event.

Pedro Villa got the job done with the Express / Villa Racing Team Top Alcohol Dragster taking the TA class victory with a 2.67 in the final over Jimmy Depasse. Defending Top Eliminator class champion Billy Morris picked up where he left off last season with another final round win, this time getting by Paul Graham in the Excavator Blown Alcohol Buggy. Another defending champ Robert Skidmore also started off on the right foot taking the Fast Fours class win over John Cronin. Jimmy Depasse won the Pro Mod Unlimited class over Derek Balcunas. Mike Brock accomplished a major feat on Sunday as he swept both the Motorcycle Pro 1 &amp; 2 categories. Mike doubled up with both of his Pro ATV&rsquo;s, congrats to Mike &amp; the team on that major accomplishment. Another racer with a big weekend was Kevin Williams, who scored Friday night&rsquo;s Pro Gambler win then put it in the Winner&rsquo;s Circle on Sunday in the Pro 3 class defeating Justin Adamson in the final round. Craig Durning (Pro 1) and Mike Williams Sr. (Pro 2) were both on their games Sunday &amp; scored huge wins to start off the 2016 season for them.
