    Nice work Jim.
    I was going to take one of the last minute cancellation spots but they changed the rules about street tires so all I could do was watch. Traveled most of the Racer route for fun and took this picture at one of the gas stops.

    This adventure has been terrific ! Thank you and your son for taking us all along! You Jim are a hero and a inspiration. I am now thinking about doing Drag Week 2016 with my coupe, because your story has been inspiring ! Because of you and sharing the trip, this has been a very exciting drag week. One that I will always remember as well. Thank you Jim. You are a winner in many ways. Mikey.

    1st place A/Gas ! The win is all yours but you kind of represent traditional racing. Great read, and the trip of a lifetime.

    Hi Jim Congratulations on your win. It was great that we could go on your super trip with you and your son. Its amazing the number of views on your other site. I really like your car and have followed along for awhile. Saw you race at Wild horse and at the 2015 Meltdown. Glad you had a safe trip and no major problems. Good luck on your next venture. Had to send you a picture at the Meltdown.

    What a great trip. Just opened my new Hot Rod Magazine and there is a nice 6 page spread on your car along with 13 color pictures. Oh, almost forgot that it is also on the front cover ! Congratulations !
