Thanks guys I thought it was a really cool deal and something to be proud of. I just didn't understand why it wasn't mentioned in the dragster maybe they missed it. I didn't set the world on fire but it went 10.53 at 127.50.

I always thought setting a record would be awesome so now I can cross that off the bucket list and it was awesome!!

Thanks again for the kind words.

Now I know it may not be the biggest deal from the weekend ,but 5 hours working your tale off in teardown and everything passing and being legal should account for something. I guess I just thought a name mention or something would be neat being its my first National record ever. Oh well just wanted to vent a little and wonder what it takes to get some recognition in the National Dragster.It was still a cool experience for me to say the least and I know your name goes in the records in the back,I just thought there would be a little on it in the highlights.

What it takes is the last name Force. Then you could get your name in the Dragster just for wipping your *****

Congrats on the record.

Congrats on your record. That should be the goal of every class racer but for some reason we've drifted towards ET predicters. I prefer your way and I'm still waiting for a national record. Maybe next year.

Congrats! Nice run and a fine accomplishment. I hope to experience it myself one day.

There was an article at the beginning of the season where the guy (maybe the editor I do not remember) said there would be more coverage of the Sportsmen racers. I was hoping it was true. I would rather read about how guys like you broke records and how hard they worked to do it than read about how pro racer x spent his vacation.

Congratulations! Can you find that extra two-tenths in ET if somebody decides they want the C/S record?

Tim, Congratulations on the record! Anytime that you experience an accomplishment, such as setting an NHRA record, it is a BIG Deal!
