WE'RE IN FLORIDA

Hello From Sunny Warm Florida!

It's Wednesday morning and we have arrived in Gainesville. Got to the track last night around midnight and Todd, Charlie, Ed, Scott Spencer, & I sat around shooting the breeze until about 2am. Woke up this morning ready to set up the pit area, get the car teched (NHRA saftey inspection), and ready to race. Testing at South Georgia Motorsports Park on Monday & Tuesday went well. We got Todd all fitted in the car and made all final adjustments. Todd made four runs, getting acclimated to the car and did a phenomenal job. The new parachutes on the car worked great. Steve Baker of SB Video Productions and his friend Fred (photographer)were both with us in Valdosta and got some great photos & video. Check the site and we'll get some of those up for you to see soon. Today & tomorrow we'll be servicing the car and putting new connecting rods in and then Friday begins qualifying. The entire team has worked unbelievably long hours with tireless dedication to get us ready to start the season. I can't say enough about what a terrific crew we have-they are the best!

Well, gotta run for now. Stay tuned to the blog-we'll try and update you all throughout the weekend.

Thanks & have a great day!

Jay
