Mark Lyle NHRA chief starter
After starting line traction problem at Englishtown, I had spoke to Mark and he said that they were going to start prepping the track for the sportsman racers, mainly stock and super stock. I will tell you he was not kidding ! I have been at four national evens sense Englishtown and all I seen is a sea of yellow shirt keeping after the starting line. As most of you know I help a good friend of mine out, Don Fezell with his 08 Cobra Jet stick. Don's combination is probably one of the hardest to get off the starting line. Sense Englishtown Don's has been getting the best 60ft's he has ever had. I miss the set up on Don's car the first couple of runs at Indy. I was expecting the car not to work at the tracks high temperatures, and man was I wrong.
I want to give a big thanks to Mark Lyle and his starting line crew for giving us the best starting line they could possible give us.
