Wesley has small hands, thats always a plus! Most important is that he is Fair.

Wesley is fair but stern. Genuinely one of the few shining stars in the NHRA organization

I'm going.

If your car is right you have no problems with Wesley. If all tech officials they were like him, we would have no bogus cars. We have great tech officials in Div 4. Two won't talk to me, but they are all fair.

Ed i was going to find you and tell you good luck in the next round, after you beat me in the third round, but you know the rain was falling at Baton Rouge. So good luck when you make the race up.

Thanks! I'm going to need it. I'll be getting my wrinkled old tail chased. Both are eight second cars.

Your coming to Baytown, right?

Take care, Ed

I've emailed Wesley a number of times with questions and he always responds quickly with a clear answer. Others are not like that. I look forward to getting my car from A to B. We didn't have alot of fun last year. ED

Yep, that is what I like. Clear straight answers.

Surely the new tranny stuff will end those problems.

See ya there!!

Ed the old tank needs a break i will be there as spectator. as for Wesley i have raced all over the U. S. as i am sure many of you have, it don't get no better than Wesley.

Ed Wright 05-12-2009 05:57 AM

Re: Houston D4 Race
 
It amazes me how fast you have "the old tank" running. Very impressive.

Take care, Ed

RHINO 05-12-2009 06:33 AM

Re: Houston D4 Race
 
That is all to do with the Johnson Family, nothing to do with me. I am just fortunate to drive such a great car. They have had the tank for a long long time and it has always been fast.

Re: Houston D4 Race
 
I saw a 40% chance Friday through Sunday. Weather underground just now showed 30% Friday & Saturday, 40% Sunday. Long drive to watch it rain. I'm not too bright, I'll probably be there anyway. Sure wouldn't be my first time.

You guys coming Chad?

Don't have any dirty movies. Jeanie won't allow them. I'll be by myself, might have to stop at the XXX Video store at the Texas state line.

You wouldn't tell her, right? :D

HAHAHAHAHAA............. Deb said "not to worry". She would either come down and keep and eye on you or stop in Tulsa this weekend and let her know what you were up to....................

BTW- congratulations on getting down to 3 cars in SS. If I get well I may try to come see you finish it off. Good luck this weekend.

Re: Houston D4 Race
 
We're parked. Looks like a pretty good turnout for a thurs. parking. A SS/DM car, that's new, didn't have good belts, so my "dependable" wife went to a speed shop out by us to get them a set. I'll deliver 'em in the morning. For those that are familiar with Austin's, David Buckner's, and JB Clegg's wreck @ Memphis, seems the bad luck followed Austin. On the way here this AM, to load the car, a bug, or something hit him in his left eye. He had to go to an eye doctor (after extensive arguments). We'll see tomorrow. I was quick to inform him that I "DO" have a helmet in the trailer. He told me that it won't come to that!!

No Respect??

Re: Houston D4 Race

Have his cell...don't want to bother him!
