Congratulations Larry Morgan. Great job at leaving the line without fail, horsepower held on and you knocked off a tough competitor. It is a real blessing to have a manufacturer that supports drag racing of which allows you to qualify at any given race. I can name a manufacturer that lost it's way in pro stock (that struggled to qualify at any race) a real disappointment to many to say the least. Your perseverance is to be admired for so many loyal years of participation in the sport/class.
Oh but Pro Stock is OHHH SOOO BORING. This is classic... I love it. The racing is great.... we need to leave this series alone and not mess with it... HOOD SCOOPS AND BIG CUBIC INCHES BABY!!!
Pro stock is dead. They all run the same. There is nothing stock about it. Clutchless trans, bodies that look like a potato. Even the teams are limited on piston weight now. Pro stock died when the cars didn’t look stock anymore.
Those guys were lucky Ol' Buster Couch isn't still the starter. He would have shut them down, and sent them both to time out land to rethink the staging games they were playing. LOL
I miss Gary Gerould. He was a great top-end interviewer. John Kernan and Jamie Howe are also good. Why FOX and NHRA continue to use that Busick lady to do post-race interviews is beyond me.
Because all these sports shows think they have to have a woman somewhere and they usually end up as an interviewer which is a job where they just get told what to ask.
This is when racing was racing staging duels make it way more interesting. Pro stock should be left alone bring back the old days no billion dollar race cars so more come back to the class.
another great engine builfer his smallblock400 is a monster todays gas killes hot roods the track sells the fuel 100 octan larry told me camms pistons why good egg all around
That may have been to burn down of the year but just almost a week ago they had to burn down of the decades also buster couch I don't believe would have allowed it to gone that long either if he was the starter
Buzz135 It’s a “burn down” to throw the other driver out of his comfort zone. And sitting their is cooling the tires and the motor is getting hot, as these motors have to be rebuilt after every run. Essentially your trying to make the other car unprepared
Comments on this video are about how awesome it is and just two guys playing the psychological game of racing but then fast forward and the comments on the burn down between Mason and Bruno from 2021 are all about how these two clowns should just stage their cars and race already, stop playing games you came to race. So NHRA fans want to have their cake and eat it too.
Thanks for posting the entire burndown, NHRA. Fantastic stuff.
Brent Mazur Reiff just keeps talking over it. Says nothing , keeps on blabbing.
RIP, Mark Lyle. What a shame to have lost him too soon. No wonder why the racers loved him so much.

Gotta love a good old fashioned Pro Stock duel. Wish there were some more of these throughout the year they are great!
Could you Imagine if Rick Stewart was the starter, He would sit Back and Crack Open a Beer until they're ready to race.
scott manning I would too. Remember when Rick told Schumacher to shut off, but AJ said no?
Yeah I would but I like when they do that to see who stages first
This was so fu*king awesome. Two legends of Pro Stock. Love AJ.

All Day...Cubes baby
you know it was 500cid even with scoops
Man, with that kind of race drama, it would pay to give these guys a raise. They brought the smoke and provided a show!

The Pro Stock staging duel of the year! #ProStockBurndown
Love the staging duel,,,,,,There should be more😎
That was great!
Awesome stuff. Absolutely classic. Drag Racing at its best.
Allen Johnson is the MAN! One of Me and my Fathers Fav ProStock Legends.
Was there that day, suspension was killer
Those guys were lucky Ol' Buster Couch isn't still the starter. He would have shut them down, and sent them both to time out land to rethink the staging games they were playing. LOL
I know I just saw the replay of Warren Johnson- Scott Geofferion Duel from 94 at Houston Raceway park.
I miss Gary Gerould. He was a great top-end interviewer. John Kernan and Jamie Howe are also good. Why FOX and NHRA continue to use that Busick lady to do post-race interviews is beyond me.

This makes mess happy! I love Larry Morgan and I'm glad he won the staging duel and the race
Miss big Larry... Old school.. Real racers...
These people must have thought they were Larry Morgan and Allen Johnson lmao
Way I see it, after you prestage if someone can beat you to the end on foot you both lose.
man, Johnson was livid!!!
the water spit and throw was classic. I would not have wanted to be in his trailer after that.
@@derekjlight it was all on him though not the crew
They need to bring back pro stock trucks.Soon the car makers will no longer be making cars.
You got a good point there
This is when racing was racing staging duels make it way more interesting. Pro stock should be left alone bring back the old days no billion dollar race cars so more come back to the class.
True gamesmanship.
Must be nerve wrecking. Miss Mike.
3:14 lol
another great engine builfer his smallblock400 is a monster todays gas killes hot roods the track sells the fuel 100 octan larry told me camms pistons why good egg all around
something that import guys will never understand!
great racing right there
Outlaw pretty sure there’s plenty imports that drag race
Come to think of it, I can't recall ever seeing two ricers have a staging duel....
What is the purpose of the burndown?
Like playing chicken?
The second one in has a good idea of when the green will go on. The first one in has to hold down his clutch longer and be ready to go longer.
Cleet, this better be you next year.
(Im sorry)
The only sport where sitting still is exsighting burn em down I love it.
That crap not tolerated anymore.
A.J was pissed !
I don't blame him lol!
+AdySpadey He threw a water bottle or something after the race!
He CHOSE to have the staging duel.... could have gone in any time.
What is the purpose of these staging battles?
That was a drag race
That may have been to burn down of the year but just almost a week ago they had to burn down of the decades also buster couch I don't believe would have allowed it to gone that long either if he was the starter
They so need to swap Prostock for Promod classes on TV because yawn
The NHRA should have prostock and promod on television. Imo
this is nothing compared to the burndown that went on between Dan Ferguson & Brian Perkinson at the recent PDRA race at maryland
Hey Allen, go put it in the box!
Me*
Left lane staged, right lane gets a red
That's where the seven second rule comes into play....
obody will beat 2 minutes of Clay Millican and Doug Herbert'
💚🥳
Those staging duals are such a joke
Its not, it makes a factor in the race and gives us fans something to remember.
This is stupid should've parked them
I don't understand. What's the point of a staging duel and why do they do it?
Treeezplz to try to throw the guy in the other lane off in terms of reaction time. Red light would be ideal.
derekjlight hmm I see. Thank you
Trying to cause the other car to overheat burning someone down can set them back thousands of dollars in repairs.
I woud b in jail, other driver b in hospital burn my car down
Whats the point of this
I'm waiting for an answer too!

That Magnetti Marelli car was f-ing sweet
