We shredded the blower belt in Q-1 and was qualified 6th. We smoked the tires in Q-2 and fell to 9th.
We were in the staging lanes this morning and the rain started and never stopped so they called the race until tomorrow. The problem with that is we have the track rented for tomorrow to shoot a commercial so now we have to reschedule the shoot for Tuesday. They have been in our pit all day today interviewing all of us and shooting footage. It is suppose to be cold tomorrow so it will probably be a tire shake fest.
I wanna see you clown around in a commercial. That would be pretty cool. Post the video when it comes out.We were in the staging lanes this morning and the rain started and never stopped so they called the race until tomorrow.

Jim's granddaughter ended up with a broken nose when the car smoked the tires on that run also. http://www.competitionplus.com/drag-racing/news/johnna-dunn-injured-in-freak-starting-line-accident
Damn the luck. Holy moly.
Johnna's was in Q-1 on Fr and TJ was in E-1 on Sun. I haven't heard anything about TJ'S car. But Beckman launched a body during testing on Mon.
Only 2 bodies in 2 days? No, pretty sure The Don's writing checks out for three new bodies...
Yep, 3 bodies. It's a good thing we have already picked up our 7 bodies from him before he runs out.
Seven? Wow. That many sponsors this year? Or are they the older non-kitty bodies being let go for "slightly" cheaper than new?Yep, 3 bodies. It's a good thing we have already picked up our 7 bodies from him before he runs out.
After the race is over on Sun at the World Finals we usually take delivery of a body from Capps, Beckman and Johnsons cars.
I'm at the track in Gainesville Fl waiting for NHRA to finish marking out our pit spot so I can park this afternoon. I stayed in Valdosta Ga Sun night, Mon, and Tues. I passed through your area early Sun morning. It looked like they must have had a tornado east of you because they were cleaning up the trees and I had to sit in about 2 hours of backed up traffic.
Yep, just ENE of us. No lives lost but it tore the hell outta everything. Where are you heading next? Coming back through here?
I'm heading back to California either Sun night or early Mon morning because I want to be home by Thursday afternoon. I wish I had time to stop by for that lunch you offered me last year. But, it will have to be when I'm going east because I'm usually in a hurry when I'm going west.
I did and she's a hoot. Thanks.
It's hard to eat a meal doing 80 on the interstate.I'm heading back to California either Sun night or early Mon morning because I want to be home by Thursday afternoon.

It's a lot harder to eat a meal on interstate 80.
Yep, I pulled the beast through there a few times. It aint a lotta fun.It's a lot harder to eat a meal on interstate 80.
Holy moly we got us a member that's a celebrity.
@Nitro Dude , after seeing your video yesterday we stopped at a big truck stop West of Wichita Springs TX this morning and they had Cattleman's Cut. We got a 12oz bag of Smoked Sausage and a 10oz bag of original Jerky. Those are big bags but they won't last long. Those are some damn fine grinding.
Wichita Springs? Do you mean Wichita Falls or Sulpher Springs or Big Spring?@Nitro Dude , after seeing your video yesterday we stopped at a big truck stop West of Wichita Springs TX this morning and they had Cattleman's Cut.
