Noticed her incrementals over 4 rounds of Charlotte qualifying and E1 - that car is no quicker than a Pro Stock to 60 feet (.960/.970s) - Joey Severance by comparison laid down an .897....and her car is consistentlyly .010-.012 slower than most of the rest of the field. But man, does it have a top end charge, running within 1mph of the record. (285 and change; record is 286 and change). Is David Grubnic tuning that thing? LOL

Now if they could get that car to run as hard in the front half as the back half, she'd be right up there with the leaders. 5.20-flat times all over the place this weekend in Charlotte.

I don’t have an answer why it doesn’t leave hard. I think Paul helps John tune it. I do know the chassis is almost 30 years old so maybe that has something to do with it. It is one of Rhonda’s old top fuel cars.
