Cowie/Grimes - A Contender for Run of the Year

[mike]

5.165 @ 280.54!!!

Norm Grimes is a bad, bad man!!!

Check that half track speed

Norm's a smart guy.

Great run by Chip Beverett, too. 5.48.

Steve Gasparelli ran a 5.49 today. First time in the 5.40's for him. It was 20 years ago this year that I signed Steve's NHRA TA/FC license at Bakersfield.

The conditions must have been pretty damn good at Woodburn! That is a great run by Chip!

That is cool! Happy to see Steve run in the 40s too, they've been all so close all year.

Greg Hunter was driving her car. He ran it at the Phoenix divisional too.

Congratulations, Shawn Cowie and everyone else who set personal bests.

Ahhhhh .... That makes more sense. Thanks for clearing up my confusion.

Absolutely incredible! As I've said before, I love that it's happening to him after all he's been through!

So, this is the quickest & fastest ever for a blown alky dragster, right?

Yes sir. First BAD in the 280s too. Hope they decide to make a lil stop at Maple Grove in a few months.

When they were running the first round of Stock Sunday morning, Alan Reinhart was saying that the corrected altitude was 190 ft.

Wow, mine shaft conditions....
