This is great, met the legend last week at Woodburn. He looks darn good for someone almost 82 years old and apparently is still young enough to beat a lot of whippersnappers. Congrats team Method!

"Cal Method's MOV: 0.0012 seconds (approximately 2 inches). He wins his second Wally."

Pure awesomeness!

While I have never had the privilege of meeting Cal, just from the NHRA.TV winners interview you could tell how likeable he is.

I just turned seventy-eight and wow does Cal make me feel like a slacker!

Good Job!

Re: Cal Method!
 
I'm in my seventies amd remember reading about Cal, and some still active others like Dick Maris, Ben Wenzel in Super Stock and Drag Illustrated, Car Craft Magazine and National Dragster.
For Cal to win this race and especially againt the reigning champions, the great Joe and Hal Sorensen.
I think of Bobby Warren and hope he's well.

Class Racing Today (Brian Anderson/Bobby Fazio) had an interview with Cal about 3 years ago (episode 48). Always worth watching again.

Congratulations Cal! See you and the rest of the family at the Pacific Divisional.

Larry Merk 07-22-2025 01:04 PM

Re: Cal Method!
 
Got a message from Cal that he wanted me to share.

He wants to thank everyone for all the congratulations and tremendous outpouring of support. He feels very humbled to have the support of such a great racing family. Thank You.

Re: Cal Method!
 
Cal, I plan to see all of you at the Divisional at Pacific in a couple of weeks. Be great to see and talk with you all. Good times definitely.
