Re: Bucky Hess
Hats off to Bucky on his amazing performance yesterday, 3 straight 8.28's @ 159 mph. In the semis, an 8.284 on an 8.28 dial @ 160 mph and a perfect .000 light. I was announcing all this, the crowd on the fences were loving it and your competitors and friends behind the starting line were going nuts! It was just great. I tried my best to convey to the crowd how difficult it is run the hemi cars real hard and do it with such a short time between rounds, and I'd bet those cars are hand full to drive well too! The whole event was fun for me, a great race overall, your performance was the highlight of the weekend for me. Great job!!

Re: Bucky Hess
Thank you for the kind words. I owe a lot to Jason Line and Jeff Guenther and the guys at KB racing, Gene Strouse and Dave at Pro Trans for fixing my Trans problems. Jason at Coan ,Vic and Mike at the track. And the Biondos for something I read about confidence. And especially my lovely wife Jeannie and my son Travis who painted this work of art. Thank you Bucky Hess ps. and Phil Mandela for the great chassis

Re: Bucky Hess
If you don't mind, please do NOT come to Bowling Green for Tim Hebert Chootout at the Sports Nationals. Please plan on skipping Indy and the Dutch as well. LOL Just kidding, I hope to see you at all of them. Man, car is working, driveline is working and the driver is working. That is very impressive and congratulations on the RU. You are sure getting me "off the couch". Lazy Phish
