It's finally official. See the NHRA site.

Good luck Larry with AJ in 2009.

IM SHOCKED!!!!

I'm very glad to see that Jason will be tuning...

 

[Paul]

I can't say I am shocked by this. Good luck to Larry and also to Jason in his first chance at tuning a TF as a crew chief.

 

[The Counterfeiter]

No surprises here. I also am glad to see Jason get the opportunity to step up.
However . . . I am going to be very interested to see how AJ's teams racing contributes to Sheikh Al Thani's goal - "To promote the domestic and international awareness of motorsports in the nation of Qatar."

 

[Don]

I guess now it is OK for me to like AJ

Good luck to all!!

I'm sure AJ and his teams will have a tour of duty over there during the off season. My question is, will Del's Megarita Mixer make the trip to Qatar?

So far, Dragstrip Finder doesn't have any listings for Qatar. Perhaps they are in the process of building a facility.

 

[----NONE----]

AJ made 2 good choices with Del and now Larry.

LMAO as I have started to think of the same thing.
Never really had any animosity against AJ but after getting involved with the "Dark Side" lumped him into the "enemy".
Now with 2 of my favorite drivers he is back on my "favorites" lists.
Good luck AJ, Del And LD!

Wow, guess the Agent picked it

Mark.

Mark.

Sorry but the Agent didn't pick Jack Schitt !!! You don't get to choose several different names, then all of a sudden one of the many names he chose is the correct one. There are only 2 sources that had this correct from the beginning. Nitromater and Comp +

 

[MM]

did the "police" mod just say a swear?

They should have websites up here in the near future for a few of the tracks they run at..

 

[megadeth]

This is now the biggest non story of the year!
Very anti-climatic...

 

[DrRocket]

did the "police" mod just say a swear?

LMAO!!!!!

This combo will probably be the same "bracket racing" consistancy type team that AJ and the TS were.

Look out.

 

[d'kid]

Okay,

About the big 'WOW' factor...

wow

This is a total shock, I never saw this coming....

'I love it when a plan comes together' Good luck and good season to everyone at AJ.

Speaking of the "Dark Side", did anyone notice the very dark, Terminator like picture of LD on the side of Snake's hauler this year??

First off, congrats to Larry for winning the top fuel lottery. If anyone knows this guy, you know he IS mr class! I am very happy for him and this opportunity. A second ATTA-BOY Goes to J-mac! He is primed and ready to step up to the big chief seat. Jason and Larry will make a wonderful team.

So here is something cool for you all to ponder. We have all seen big hospitality areas for teams to wine and dine sponsors and VIP'S. Well, there will be NO sponsors on this car next year. So Alan will be using his hospitality area for another purpose. I dont want to ruin the suprise, but its really cool!
The team is planning to test both cars in two areas. Palm beach and phoenix prior to Pomona.

Congrats to Shannon and Bobby for getting this right!

AWESOME!!....congrats to Larry on landing another great ride, and congrats to AJ for landing another great driver!!!......

Now the hard part comes.......I hope there will be somebody there to race when you pull up to the line Feb. 8

Only logos on the car are Al Anabi ,Quatar, and AJR.... I can not wait to see the response on the paint schemes... I think the funny car design is bad ass.....
