Tony Shoe Wins..... (1 Viewer)

[yoda]

Absolutely one of the most amazing Finals ever... We all dream about winning it all that way. Honestly. If you became a fan as a kid, or came in and were bitten by the bug late, everybody dreams of winning the LAST RACE of the LAST RACE, setting the record and winning the Championship. It IS the stuff Dreams are made of

Tony and Co. deserve to be on cloud 9 after an unbeliveable end of season charge. And thanks to Team K for making it a chase to the end.

I LOVE THIS STUFF!!!!!

UNBELIEVABLE!!! But than again, don't ever put anything impossible in front of Alan Johnson. GREAT JOB FOR THE ARMY TEAM!!!

 

[JAG]

Congrats to DSR! I admit, I was rooting for Dougie this year.

What a way to win a championship

And they say they need to change the points to make it more exciting. How could this season been any more with 3 championships going down to the last couple rounds

 

[murdock]

Can we postpone the 07 points system for another year???

let me see if I can grasp this. On the last possible run of the entire year Alan Johnson threw in an all, or nothing at all tune up to win the Championship by Nine Thousandths of a second!!!!!

This may be the last time you will ever see such a sensational chase for the championship boys and girls. In the last pass forever of the true championship style points system.

although im a huge kalitta fan, i have to tip my cap to team shumacher. alan johnson is THE MAN !!!!!!!

 

[elvis]

Alan Johnson is not human... ain't no way he is human.

 

[I was NITRO BREATH]

A STUNNING VICTORY.
I think we all felt the SHOCK with Doug

 

[Jer]

WOWWWWW that was great,awesome job DSR. That was exciting,next years points are gonna suck.

 

[Jenn]

They should have points penalized them too for last night.

I'm not bitter.

 

[Just Paul]

Alan Johnson is the man. That's about all there is to say!


I hope Melanie Troxel gets a fat bonus check for that RT in the Semi Final

 

[Bob]

TF & Tony Shoe, what a joke. Makes me sick they let him get away with ignoring the starter (Rick) and then they say he won the championship. He shouldn't have been in it today.

What happened last night?

 

[Kris]

Without even realizing it, I was on my feet, chinese carton in one hand, fork in the other, yelling, "Oh my god! He did it. He won the race and he threw down a record too just because he had to."
That was amazing. I'm not one to root for the popular guy, the one with multiple championships, but the comeback really got me. I thought for sure by mid-season that Tony Shoe was out of it, no chance in hell.

So, Tony, congratulations. I hope I get the chance to do so in person, quite late though, next summer when the NHRA comes back to Seattle.

I am like, wow, I just, man, wow. Thanks to all the dragster drivers in the class who helped make the season so exciting from start to finish.

What happened last night?

Shue didn't shut off when Rick told him too, they fined him 20,000 dollars for not following the commands of a starting line official.
