    WOW! Awesome!
    5.99, I bet Eddie Hill would have loved to run that in 66!

    I think it's pretty awsome, every time I walk up to it after the burnout, to take the engine, tire, and track temperatures. It shakes the ground Man.

    A couple of shots I took in the pits on Sunday. Tried to take one during the run, but I dropped the camera.:D
    Here's Brad (recycler) and Randy (Rand Man) massaging the coupler.

    That's awesome -- congrats, guys!

    I may try to make that Indy event in June - isn't BG the weekend after that? -Father's Day weekend?

    Here's a shot as it rolled off the trailer, or was it after the run? Anyway, the track was closing and we didn't get a chance to get in another full pass that day. There was a guy there that may have made a video. If I can find it, I'll post that too.

    Congratulations on the 5 sec. pass and nothing wounded. That's the first time i've seen John without a crutch or a cane in a long time, glad to see the knee surgery was successful.
