Four Days in May

Hard to believe but it's already been 10 years since that drama filled weekend that included the race to be the first stocker to run in the 9's and the first of the west coast-east coast hemi meetings. I was there for it all, it is a weekend that will live in my mind forever. It seems like it was yesterday but I look at the pictures and realize it was 10 years (damn wrinkles!) How time flies and how drag racers keep working and making their cars go faster. Dad was the first to break the 8.60-zone for the hemis and now the top hemi guys are running low 8.20's. 4 tenths in 10 years...wow. I can only imagine what the next 10 years will hold.
