Update From Phoenix

[Andys dad]

OK it must just be me but why does anyone make traction compound that not only does not work - it does the reverse of what it is suppose to do.

Bull I say.

I do not have a PHD in traction compounds, as some who have posted here, seem to have. Not sure where to acquire the knowledge. Have read about solution mixtures. Have read about cold track vs ?? (not cold track).

I can only say one thing in defense of the track and NHRA - I do not believe either of them would have wanted this to happen. Everybody wanted to complete the race(s).

Not sure why they did not do the National on Thursday when they had a crew and the safety equipment there for the test and tune.

Sure glad I reverted to "young and irresponsible" and went to the "race" instead of staying home. As Toby told me Friday "I knew you would come".

Drag racing is an addiction for which there is no cure or rehab.

Sorry for the rambling but I think I am suffering from post "no-race" syndrome.

Until next time.
