    At the SDRA races on Friday night there was 5 dragsters there. Bob didn't have his but Joe Hamby was out he was easing it through but still ran 107 in the mid 12's. It was great to have so many cars out. I am in Spokane Washington right now so I'm going by memory. Todd had a new driver and he had never ran a pro light so he was at a disadvantage but he did well. He won all his races and I won all mine so the last race was between us. I was a little late out but was right beside him so I knew it would be close at the lights. I started to pull him on the top end and was elated when the win light came on in my lane. I did my best ever ET at 11.46 with 116.16 mph. The old Jimmy gave it's all for that race as it went dead because the battery was dead. I had to use my cell phone and call my wife to get me a tow back to the pits. If the belts had not held me down I would have stood up and cheered when I went through the lights. Wonderful feeling because Todd's car is rarely beaten. It was a great night to say the least.:D Roy
