View Entire Blog

Hi All!!!!

I hope everyone had a great weekend and that you watched the first NHRA race at NC's new ZMax track too! What a beautiful track!

Well there was alot of rain at Epping! OMG! there was darn river going through the pits in the morning on Saturday when Jeff and i got up! I coudnt believe it! The boys ran one run on Friday & qualified, woohoo! ..I got there Friday night, afterwards =( . We had a bit of a bummer on Sunday when we ran Jack Wyatt...Jeff lost on a whole shot...Jack apologized up and down for turning on both bulbs by mistake...and its kewl, we still love you! it was a total mistake, it happens. but there was more to it on our side...Jeffs brakes were a bit glazed and he couldnt hold it and then he had trouble getting it on the high side... so his game was off for the start...no he wasnt sleeping or eating tacos on the starting line...haha! oh yea, it did blow the burst panel on the last run too...Anyway...that was the deal & so even though he ran a better run, he lost to Senor Wyatt. Our car is running soooo well right now, its a bummer this isnt one of the first races of the season! We had a bit of a hard time this year with changes & not having a solid tuner - but we did get some help from a few good friends, Bobby Lagana Jr. of T/F IHRA & NHRA & Tony Shortall of T/F ranks at NHRA, being 2 of them. Thank you guys!!! you rock! =) Jeff has pretty much been doing the tuning himself recently though -which even though its more work for him, I think its a good idea - even more hands on- he knows whats happening, whats being done to the car etc.. ya know. But we have finally gotten our racecar back & are totally looking forward to the new season and of course the last race at The Rock in October!!!!!! Oh yeahhhhh, and also...Dom Lagana ran a 4.74/ 285 mph on Sunday!!!!!!! So proud! Go Dom!!!!

I'd also like to thank our super great friends in Bobby Lagana's camp for the absolutely knock down- drag out good time at dinner!!! xoxox!

We also celebrated one of our crew members -Keith Wilson's birthday! Happy Birthday Keith & thank you for spending your weekend with us!!!!! you rule!
