I was at Martin MI. today and yesterday watching pre-Indy testing. Grace Howell tested today, ran 6.66 clicked off early, 197mph. I was standing right behind her on the line, very nice straight pass.

Thank you everyone for the nice comments. Grace has been really busy the last few weeks and it looks like a lot of progress has been made. She is very appreciative of the kind words from her fellow stock and super stock racers. See you at Indy!

Hello, Bill...It has been a long, long, LONG time, sir. I've watched your daughter's progress and success over the years. Grace has done an excellent job at becoming a drag racer. It is truly "in the blood" for that young lady.

The Pro-Stock opportunity is awesome. I'm sure Grace will race with her skill, experience learned over the years...and cool head...and do very well in the class. Wishing you guys all the best at Indy and future events!
