Congrats, I like most of the drag racing world was pulling for you!

Congrats, Lane. From a former fellow "V" guy.

I enjoyed getting to meet Lane this morning.

The whole place was pulling for him.

I think Brian Lohnes said something like he had never seen so many people throw their hands up at the same job.

A very impressive performance.

Famous quote: "It's not what you drive, but it's how you drive it". I just can't think of who says that all the time....old age.

Congrats to you and Drew for a great show.

Good job old friend! We were pulling for you! Just don't wait 17 more years to return to a final round.

I thought the new thing was showing the Sportsman finals? Does Tony still describe each Pro class at least once a race?

Thank you all very much! I missed the first two sessions due to discovering a dead battery and then a bad starter which resulted into two runs to parts stores in town. Had everything back together and on the ground about an hour before the last session. We`ve been fighting a miss that began at the points race up here and still haven`t totally cured it, that's why the over index runs. Never ran under `til the final and never lifted on any pass. While waiting for the rain to stop before the final I told Drew his car cover was worth more than my car. He chuckled. Disappointed in my driving on both ends in the final but very fortunate to even get past first round! Thanks again everyone, hopefully it won`t be another 17 years for another shot at the "Big Man"!

It's hard to judge the finish line when the other car is running 64 mph faster.
