We are proud of you. You've done very well.

Thanks Carl. Did I almost run into the back of you all when we were at a stop sign near the track? I think it was 1979 that I finished 9th in the 5-day points footbraking!


And I'll never forget what may be a record of sorts for a track - Orlando had 3 or 4 division champions out of 5 in 1980 - Super Pro (Silver/black Camaro?), Pro (me), Sportsman (Ann Tillman) and not sure about the motorcycle champ. First year NHRA crowned World ET Champions the World Finals in Ontario, CA.


Great memories!

As for the jacket, nice try. I actually did feel bad for you. But it reminded me of Chicken Little! Great race nonetheless. Looking forward to next time.




Thanks everyone!

Congrats to you both.
I managed to find a Friday Q sheet but Harry The Hat wasn't even on it. ??

Harry was late as usual! He made a Q run on Saturday morning and ran 10.86 on the HF/SA index of 12.00! Harry said he put a new motor in the "Escort Service" Under Dog Ford. Had all of us going "way to go Harry!" That thing is gunna fly in good air! Jim
