A few years ago,there was a BRUT ESSENCE of DRAG RACING award that was given to Sportsman Competitors.

Its too bad that they still don't have it.You should definately be in the running.

Less than one week to Pomona,no running engine,(never made a pass with a new car)weather forecast sounds terrible(major Winter storm for Chicago forecasted for Tuesday),you are a few thousand miles away and you are still looking forward to Pomona with a running car?
This is definately the "Essence of Drag Racing"

Good Luck!

Its like they say - what a difference a day makes as this morning its sunny and blue skies but the temperature a bone chilling 5 degrees .As we pack to get back on the road ( still about three hours away ) I took a few shots from out the coach window - I'm not goin' out yet - with the wind chill it must be at least 10 below .I know that it must be super cold because the generator took extra long to start - for awhile I thought maybe it wouldn't ever-this things got a diesel Onan that is normally very good but this morning tough sledding for sure .

Called in last night and they tell me the plow is waiting ...................

There ya go......What a great testimonial......Onan-Diesel generator started in sub 10 degree weather.........

They do have glo plugs but the fuel gets very cold and makes it tougher to start.........
