Wishing Charlie all the luck..P/S desperately needs more diversity. Would love to see some pictures of his "low buck operation"

No way he shows up unprepared.
198 mph looks like he clicked it off early.
We'll see what he's got shortly.

While Charlie certainly made a lot of brash statements when he ran the Hemi cars, from what I have seen he has been pretty humble about the Pro Stock effort. Maybe I have missed something.

I asked Charlie yesterday what he hoped to accomplish during his debut this weekend and typical Charlie he said, "to go out there and not look like an idiot."

He may be a long way from being competitive but he's already got the respect of almost every other Pro Stock team out there because he was determined to do things his way and takes no short cuts.

Thumbs up Re: Charlie Wescott Jr

It's all about what's in the bellhousing! Charlie will make the HP , no problem ! When we use to Test, run IHRA, and then go to an NHRA Natl. event with the Top Fueler, it was amazing how different we had to run the clutch ! Wescott's aren't stupid. They'll figure it out. ... A little history lesson - Think about this - How many Top Fuel Races did Alan and Blane Johnson qualify for the first year they switched from Alky to Nitro ? ....yep ...The rest is history.
