MEGAN MEYER DESTROYS OLDEST NHRA RECORD !
Megan Meyer , the Kansas-bred , second generation superstar who has earned nearly every title in drag racing , shocked the sport on August 31 , 2020 , by announcing she would retire at the end of the season to focus on marriage and a family . The twenty-six year old A / Fuel Dragster pilot should ’ ve added , “… right after I tie up a few loose ends ”.
Four days later , the reigning NHRA Lucas Oil Series Top Alcohol Dragster World Champion unloaded her NGK Spark Plugs dragster and qualified on the pole at the 66th annual DENSO Spark Plugs NHRA U . S . Nationals in Indianapolis . Within two more days , Megan also qualified atop the Jeg ’ s All Stars TAD program contested the same weekend . While Megan was knocked out of All Stars competition in the opening round by her sister , Rachel , she had not yet begun to fight .
Going into Indy 2020 , Megan Meyer was the third-quickest and second-fastest driver ( 5.11 seconds , 285.35 mph ) in TAD history . When eliminations began for the biggest event of the season , Low ET at Indy 2020 was a 5.17 produced by Shawn Cowie ’ s brutal
|
supercharged alcohol dragster . The echoes of Megan ’ s announced decision to leave the sport were still reverberating through the pits when , in the first pair of cars in the second round , Megan became forever known as the racer who finally beat the “ unbreakable record ”.
At the 2004 NHRA World Finals at Pomona , Oregonian Mitch Myers broke the two year-old 5.13 ET A / FD record of Gary Ormsby , Jr ., with a brilliant 5.109 , ( backed by a 5.11 ). The NHRA made revisions to the A / FD rules within the TAD division and , on April 1 , 2007 , Michigander Bill Reichert ripped through the Baytown , TX , lights with a 5.103 . The NHRA placed more restrictions on the naturally-aspirated nitro dragsters and the record sat .
It sat for years and years and years . Reichert ’ s “ Ten ” soon became recognized as an unattainable benchmark destined to remain for decades as an example that exceptional performance only earns more weight , less gear or a weaker fuel percentage . A total of eight different drivers recorded elapsed times between 5.11 and 5.15 but none succeeded in erasing the mark . The record sat , mocking all who made attempts against it , for an astonishing thirteen years , five months and four days .
