Formula D kicked off year five where it has the last few, Long Beach, Calif., and the heat returned with it, frying the LA area to a golden brown.

One week after the opening round of the NOPI Drag Racing Series sanctioned by NHRA was washed out by Mother Nature in Georgia, she tried to pull the same stunt again in Jupiter, Florida, for Round 2 at Moroso Motorsports Park.
