Re: Bucky Hess
Hats off to Bucky on his amazing performance yesterday, 3 straight 8.28's @ 159 mph. In the semis, an 8.284 on an 8.28 dial @ 160 mph and a perfect .000 light. I was announcing all this, the crowd on the fences were loving it and your competitors and friends behind the starting line were going nuts! It was just great. I tried my best to convey to the crowd how difficult it is run the hemi cars real hard and do it with such a short time between rounds, and I'd bet those cars are hand full to drive well too! The whole event was fun for me, a great race overall, your performance was the highlight of the weekend for me. Great job!!
