I'm guessing his car just got a lot less boring to him. Wow, what a ride.

that was crazy. he might be a good driver but luck was on his side that day. he missed the other car by what looked like a couple feet 2 times. first with the nose then spun around and almost with the *** end.

Luck on his side, yes. But judging by the quick reactions and brake work..he knew what he was doing.

Tim bought the car about 2 months after that pass. The previous owners wife said that it had to go after that run!! Still NO Whellie Bars. Now the car runs 8.20s to 8.40s. Will run a little faster but have had some problems finding the right tune and getting it to hook up consistent. But like i said he has had it on the bumper a couple of times but no drama like that pass down the track. He just had it at Joliet for the Superbowl of Street Legal Drag Racing Event.
