Thoughts NHRA Winter Nats?

Damn, did Antron take a hit or what? Lucky to walk it off. Dave Rieff.(sp) OK me taking over Paul Page's spot. Mike Dunn still rules the booth. Glad to see Dixon back a ride too. As Brittney Force in a TF. She will be one to deal with yet..(Force money, but OK me, as racing to win damn sure don't come cheap) Long season coming...
BUT, the only thing that pissed me off was not shown ESPN, the Nat Anthem before ANY race. And after, many the greats the starting line? "Fire'em up":thumbsup:

Daytona 500 next week, will have 3 HOURS pomp and circumstance. But hat off Danica, who got a pole spot.

I don't care one way or the other, as glad to see a new season.."racing"!;):D:thumbsup:

Yeah was dam glad to see Antron walk away from that. How cool is it that they are now useing a capsule like in the top fuel boats. Just makes sence to me. Antron runs little boats with us and is a heck of a guy.

Garlits idea seems to be taken serious finally

"So when the NHRA announced in December they were going to test a driver enclosure and a mono-strut wing for improved safety in Top Fuel, it’s no surprise that Garlits had these two features on his dragster in 1986 and 1992 respectively. Thanks to his independent and innovative thinking years ago, drag racing may discover its future by recalling its past".
