Man oh man I haven't been to a show in a while and I couldn't believe my eyes .
At Texas Raceway last night it was one of those nights when every thing is just perfect .
Those short wheelbase cars with the huge Blown engines are notoriously fickle and hard to drive but those guys amazed me with very few if any early shutdowns and there was only one lane switch down track.
What there was were a bunch of high 3 sec side by blasts . Yeah that's what its all about .
I miss The Hay Ride car and Bobby Marriot .
Quite a few years ago after Bobby grazed the wall never lifting I was looking at the damaged Fiberglas fender and thinking how lucky to not damage the slick when Bobby walked up with a roll of tape pulling off the loose stuff to get ready for next round .
I ask him how many bodies did he go through in a season and he said he ordered them by the Gross .
I can hardly wait till July 5 and 6 at North Star Dragway Denton Tx when the AA/FD's take on the TOPMA Promods .
Caps off to those guys , they are first class .
