The National Dragster Magazine sponsors this race once a year at Houston Raceway Park and the winner gets the purse and a National Dragster Wally.

My wife Sheila Day won the No-Electronics class Saturday. It was her first win at that track and did it in style. She was driving the car in my avatar and man that thing was deadly consistent. She was cutting lights and running the number all day. She had some very tough competition. I am so proud of her.

A big special thanks goes out to Circle D Transmissions and Circle D Specialties for building us a deadly consistent transmission and converter.

Another big thanks goes out to Erik Koenig of HKE Racing Engines for building a very stout 408 pump gas engine that will take all we can throw at it. We have just over 300 passes on this engine now.

Wow! How Sweet! Tell her "BIG CONGRATS" for me, I know her heart is still fluttering from the excitement. Maybe someday I will get one of those...:nod:
