In the wake of J. R. Todd's amazing season, I am still impressed with what Hillary Will and her crew & owners did this year:
Assembled a very tight group of employees in a short time - some who never worked together before; or even on a nitro motor.
New car, new hauler, new parts, new tools .... new everything.
Her Crew Chief Jim-O only in his 3rd year as the sole-pit boss....
Clocked a career best ET of 4.482, best speed at 328.78.
They went down the racetrack 138 times, and of that only had a "bad" run 32 times..... the least of any Kalitta car.
2 Final round appearances & 1 event win (IHRA included).... and made the top 10.
All in all a damn impressive performance by Hillary's group. And it's quite a message to all the veteran drivers out there that "the newbies" both JR & Hill made. And we all know they're both only going to get better!!!!
I am proud of both of them. Go get 'em in '07!!!!!!
