Billy Glidden is probably the premier driver in street legal drag racing history. And history has shown that playing the cards you are dealt properly is the best way to win at the game of poker. Nobody, and I mean, nobody, is better at holding his cards to the vest than Billy Glidden.
In the first round of qualifying, Glidden ran a 60-foot time which is just amazing - a 1.08 60-foot, to go along with a 2.97 and 4.51 to the 1/8 front half. He lifted, to run a 7.12 at only 169.32 mph. In the past, he has run as quick as 4.40 at 165 mph in stellar conditions and probably at a lighter weight, along with a 1.04-60 foot.
What can he run out here? Only Billy knows.
