Very sad and unfortunate to hear NHRA Top Alcohol Driver and former NOPI Compact series star Stephanie Eggum succumbed to injuries suffered in a skydiving incident late Thursday, August 1, 2013. She was the 2007 NHRA Sports Compact Nationals Winner at Las Vegas and I believe the 1st to eclipse the 7 second barrier in a front wheel drive Honda. Addtionally, in recent years she obtained her Top Alcohol Dragster and Funny Car licence. Stephanie was known at numerous levels and friends to many in the drag racing community. I know she has gods speed and will be missed by many :(
