In Top Fuel, it isn't the drivers that are slow to react.

I am glad to see Dave getting a ride, I hope it is a good solid full time ride.

There are a few Super class past champions in the fuel classes already that would be racking up .00's if it was possible!

I'm thinkin he's going to do better than this.

Take a look at a past Super Comp champion's average light in Top Fuel. I'm sure the stats are out there.

I think Dave is a great driver, a great racer, and a great guy. But knowing some of the guys in Top Fuel, I figure the driver can only do so much. If you think he's going to be killing the tree with double 00 lights, I don't think even Dave will agree with you.

I think he is also flying a stunt plane in the red bull flying series and doing good.
