    Ok here's what you all have been waiting for.... actual video footage of the "last run of D.W." complimements of Willie B.'s cell phone. If you look hard and slow it down you can actually see the "explosion". Go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzwV9heL0Yc Oh yeah btw Dave, the 10.96 run was a thing of beauty......seemed like there was alot more in the car. That run was much faster than it appeared so I know you had something left.

    Congrats on breaking into the 10s! Remember several years ago some ole grey headed f'er telling you about building cars? Build a stout motor, break something, fix it stronger, break something else, fix it, eventually you quit breaking stuff then you build a badder motor and start the breaking cycle all over again. Can't beleive I missed the HAMB drags, look forward to seeing you run in October!

    That car sounds AWESOME!!!!!! I watched that video about 10 times in a row. Nothing like the sound of a high-reving V8 on the verge of greatness!

    OK, I'm gonna be "that guy". What track is that? I have GOT to go there! It looks pretty grass roots!

    I looked up Temple Raceway, but the Google Imagery didn't seem to match up with the video. Or am I backwards? The vid was filmed with the car running right to left and the Imagery showed a building on the north side of the track, which would make the cars run left to right. Get what I'm tryingto say? Or is it the Makers Mark?
