Isn't it great how well Jim Head does with no sponsorship! Just goes to show ya, money can't buy everything! Smarts goes a long way too!
Jim probably has a couple bucks to work with, so "money did buy..." Hope he does good this year.Isn't it great how well Jim Head does with no sponsorship! Just goes to show ya, money can't buy everything! Smarts goes a long way too!

Jim Head is one of my fav's too. He's super smart, a fellow civil engineer. Gotta think that if I were a racer, I would be doing all I could to use logic and engineering to get down the track faster - as I am sure he does now. Loved his comment in an interview once when asked if when its time to retire if he'd put someone else in the seat, he said it's too dangerous and would never put anyone but himself in his car.
A year or so ago there was a thread on here about independent Fuel teams and how they get by. Bobby Lagana jr. posted about how they gang up 4-5 crew guys to a Motel room. A lot of the really squeezed teams will stay at the track, no motels what so ever. As for Jim Head, even though he is a very wealthy man, I'm still willing to bet he'll trim the Fat anyway he can!
Can someone in the know, tell me why a sponser does,nt snap Jim head & his bunch up? We all know he is one of the most intelligent guy,s out there. I,m just wondering if it,s because he won,t bend over backwards to please said sponser. Maybe thing,s will change if and when he put,s another driver in the seat.
A funny car combined with our screwball economy could make him a not so wealthy man in a hurry!!!!!
