    Clermont, Ind. - NHRA announcer legend, Alan Reinhart knows his stuff.

    During the first round match up pairing Tony Bartone and Chris Foster, Reinhart, "called his shot" and picked a round one "Upset" for Foster. As usual, Reinhart was correct in his prognostication.

    Insidetopalcohol.com founder Will Hanna took 2-0 ITA fantasy league challenge league this weekend during round one of Top Alcohol Funny Car in the 55th NHRA Mac Tools US Nationals presented by Lucas Oil held at O'Reilly Raceway Park.

    Hanna, who is the crew cheif of the Chris Foster driven Alky Flopper was able to capture a round win vs. the team from Santa Clarita, Calif. in a lack-luster first round match-up at the "Big Go".

    Tony Bartone, the two-time US Nationals champion in TAFC and driver of the Rick Jackson Racing, Center Pointe Collision Center, FireIce.com, Husseycopper, Throwdown.com sponsored flopper was able to slap a sizeable starting-line advantage over the Davenport, Iowa driver Foster.

    In a race that can be best described as a match-up of the lesser of two evils, Foster was able to cross the finish-line first, recording a lack-luster 5.702 second run vs. Bartone's substandard 5.880 engine damaging performance.

    "Well, when it comes down to it, Hanna and his driver Foster, earned the adult beverage he will receive on Monday Night in Indiana," stated Rick Jackson Racing Marketing and Public Relations representive Tim Charlet after attending the Connie Kalitta 'Roast' at the track. "Drag racing is a game. It's all about getting to the finish line first. It does not matter how it happens, but even though my boys may have lost today, I am sure the future hold great promise for the Rick Jackson Racing team."

    Hanna, who was busy turning the wrenches in between rounds was unavailable for comment prior to the release of this report. His driver Foster willl match up against somebody who is going get their butts kicked tomorrow. Charlet, who also serves as the news editor for Insidetopalcohol.com will be pulling for a "Big Go" victory for the Division three runner.

    (This release is posted "JUST FOR FUN" the opinions expressed in this release do not reflect the opinions of I.T.A. or it's founder Will Hanna, Rick Jackson Racing, Tony Bartone, Center Pointe Collision Centre, or Mr. Tim Charlet. ) :eek:
