Default Re: $50,000 World Footbrake Challenge

This was really a footbrake race. Just air/electric shifters allowed.

I had pre-entered for the race, but then the promoters asked if I would announce for the event. So, I announced all weekend, and gave my entry to Jason Weaver, a multi-time champ from Beaver Springs Dragway in PA. He paid off the entry and made both of us a little money on top of that. Be glad that Weaver hasn't gotten a S/SS ride yet!

Y'all missed an absolutely spectacular event. The World Footbrake Challenge just took over the top slot from the US Class Nationals on my personal list of the greatest events of all time (that I've been to). They'll be announcing the 2008 event details in a couple of months.
