The work continues into the offseason.  It's a little more relaxed of a pace but there are still a bunch of things that need to get done.  If you're not a racer yourself you may not know that there are safety equipment (for example) & the chassis that need to be certified every year or sometimes every 2 or 5 years.  In the offseason we get these things accomplished.  In addition we are working on doing any updates that we have been thinking about as we learned so much ...

There are times I have to remind myself that I am already living the dream that I never thought I would have.  I feel so fortunate to be able to do this with hard work and the support of my family.  We went to the NHRA Earlville Iowa race over the weekend with the best of intentions.  10 cars fighting to be in an 8 car field and being relatively new to the competition scene I was a little intimidated.  Q2 on Saturday ended up being my new personal best 5.49! Finally into t...

We just got back from the trip to Brainerd!  It was honestly a very good experience.  We had a couple of setbacks that we are taking back as learnings.  Fortunately we were able to fix them on while at the track and qualify with a 5.54 at 229.  It was our best run ever and I lifted just a little early.  Going into first round we tried our best but the car dropped a couple holes and ran a similar 5.58 to the number one qualifiers 5.26.  

Just prior to round ...

Wow how time flies! It is almost August.  The summers always fly by because every moment spent not racing is spent working on the car to get it ready for the next race or I'm at the track trying to learn more.

It's crazy how addicting this sport is.  This weekend was supposed to be my first race, the St. Louis division race.  It was postponed due to hot weather.  Although this was probably the right call, I couldn't help but be disappointed since this was going to be...

I AM OFFICIALLY LICENSED!

This past weekend was one of the best of my life I'm sure.  There has been so many years of hard work leading up to this and finally it happened.  The recap is that we made one run on Friday after the Top Alcohol Dragster and Top Alcohol Funny Car Qualifying session.  I went to about 1000 ft before lifting to get a 6.27 @ 185mph.  I was excited that I jumped from a 6.98 to a 6.27 but at the same time I was disappointed that what I needed to ...

Hi!

There has already been so much going on in 2017!  The very fun ride of the Search for a Champion has come to an end.  We are really honored to be a part of #TeamChampion for the year since we were one of the twenty five finalists.  So many people were voting everyday and I appreciate you all.  It was a long road for us all to remember to vote and then wait to hear results but so much fun too.  I'm sure my many vote reminders got to be annoying to some. ;)
