I was thinking the same thing Paul! And be assured I'll be giving Jack a ration about that "sloppy" driving when I talk to him!Pretty impressive. It probably would have been a 4.65 if it had been in the groove, but that right lane gave the floppers fits all weekend.
Ya'll catch Bazemores dig?? He wonders why some people don't like him.
Yeah, Whit showed his true colors again! I guess he didn't see Ron's car do the exact same thing in the pair before Jack's!!

Great weekend for Jack indeed.
I want to say an extra special congrats to the Matco Team. Those guys have had more adversity thrown at them than anyohne this season and through it all they never had a defeatist attitude. They should be very proud of what they accomplished. Great way to end their season.

Just when everyone thinks you need to be Rich to get a Shot at Professional Drag racing! I remember meeting Jack in the Stands at Pomona '94, he and his crewguy was watching TF qualifying with us. Who would've thought I'd see that guy behind the wheel of a 330 MPH flopper 12 years later! Congrats on your Marriage First off, and setting the Natl. record 2nd!

As to Bazemores "DIG" about Jack's driving
Bazemore shouldn't have said what he did. His attitrude is perhaps why he wasn't driving.
My impression was "man that guy can drive" He kept it off the wall and in his lane and still ran a record number.
Lets see Bazemore try that instead of trying to bring another driver down
to his level.
Don't get me wrong, I like Bazemore as a driver but sometimes his mouth gets in his way.

I don't remember his exact words, but I thought Whit also complimented Jack on his progress and wished him success. As far as saying Jack made a driving error, I don't know if he was right or wrong. Either way, Jack is certainly doing a great job learning the ropes in a fuel FC, and I'm glad to see his success.

Whit probably was right, but that doesn't mean he should have said it. I like Whit a lot, in fact he was my favorite funny car driver out there, but that comment sounded a little like sour grapes to me.
I missed Whit's interview, what did he say exactly?
If that's the case, Ron Capps made a driving error in the pair just before Jack's. Because Ron's car made the exact same move as Jack's!
