    Last Outlaw Dragster race was 3.99 or go home I would expect this to be 3.89 or go home :D I'll be there looking for a 3.80 or better driving Lou Novotny's dragster :eek:
    I may know someone who can help you alot, I will check with him, but if I see you in the final you gotta red light! :D

    I figure there are going to be some fast dragsters there. I do not know what the funny car will do in the 1/8. I doubt if my car will run 80's. I am thinking more like 90's or slower. As many of you know I am new to the funny car, so it should be interesting to just get it down the track.

    With the way the weather is looking, it may become a boat race instead.

    Wow your brutal!:eek: :D:D
    ran a 3.93 on the last pass, well see.......
    with the cold air, I would expect to see everyone pick up a tenth if the track holds it.

    Todd Lamb, no dice on the helper he cant make it, but if you need a little help stop by my trailer. Good luck !

    I want to thank everyone who called or emailed me about helping at Norwalk. Due to a family matter we had to leave the track Thursday night. I will be contacting all of you here shortly who I have not already talked to.

    We got in 3 passes and learned a whole lot. I can not tell everyone how excited I am about the move to asphalt. I had so many people at Norwalk help with little things we forgot, driving info. and just coming over and saying good luck. I also want to thank everyone who made it possible to get there Bill Scherer, Gary Keller, JR Lane, Bob "Bubba" George, Harry Rydbomb, Tom Strayer, Jeff Mcgaffic, Joe Cheeseman, Jeff Fowler, the Levan family and I know I left out a lot of people who made our first time a great one. Also, a big thanks out to the Norwalk track for working with us. They are a true class act. Thanks to all!!

    Here is the write up Norwalk did. This really made us feel good.

    Thanks again,
