Stephen, that was a great post; it pretty much says it all. It was nice to see your name on the NHRA records page yesterday, congrats again. Maybe in 2010 you can make a trip up here to Div.1 and show off that bad Fairlane.

I was there! That 9.49 run was a thing of beauty! Stephen snagged #2 gear 5 feet in the air and it kept on going gradually setting down and proceeded to truck down through the lights like a freight train on nitro. I am so proud of Stephen and Horace. It was an honor to be there and share time with them. Jim
