TPed 2011 sponsor?

[Bullard Anderson]

You don't have to like Tony, you can down right loathe the guy, but Funny Car needs a Tony Pedregon.

how bout that Al Ackerman eh????

It's great to see this happen to my partner-he's worked hard for this success-both in terms of the driving and preparing the car-did you see the PR he got from Goodyear and the PR Good year got from him?

Spending the weekend with GoodYear's PR guy Lee Elder like I did down at the TOP END PR SHACK... I happened to have seen it...and may have even planted a bug or two in his ear about some of the sportsman guys using Eagles...

After the way their last nitro sponsorship ended, it will NOT be Caterpillar.

 

[Nunz]

What happened, I can't remember? Was it the Powers deal?

Great to see. Doesnt look like Tony has$ problems now...that Car has just about as many sponsors on it as Force! Well..maybe not that many

Wonder what ever came of him coming ot the ADRL and running a 50% nitro car?.. people were still talking about that this past weekend....

Good for Tony! Wonder if Cruz has Snap on next year?

The article says nothing about a 2011 deal. It only says they're fully sponsoring him for Charlotte 2010 and associate sponsorship for the remaining 2010 races.

Yeah, I noticed that as well. Wonder if it's a trial deal for '10 that has implications for '11?

 

[J]

Hmmm hopefully 11 too

hopefully they will be rewarded beyond their expectations.

AMEN!

People should let KOMATSU know that the NHRA fans appreciate their support.
