Pics from Southern Nationals

Good Monday Morning Everyone!!

Videographer Steve Baker has been around Follow A Dream for a long time....he's a great friend and awesome videographer. Steve was the the Southern Nationals with us about a month ago shooting video of the new car. He got plenty of great stuff of the Permatex/Wynn's/Texas Roadhouse Chevy Impala SS.

He grabbed some stills from the video and sent them to me, so I'm sharing them with the rest of the Follow A Dream family.

Enjoy,

Jay

Follow A Dream Featured on FOX 5 Atlanta

Morning everyone,

As I mentioned on Thursday, we were interview by Buck Lanford of FOX 5 Atlanta. The story ran Sunday night and you can check out the story by clicking here.

More later today, we're heading to Franklin, Tennessee.

P.S. After the interview, the reporter did confirm that I look like George Clooney!! LOL. You'll see what I mean.

Southern Nationals Day 2


We're 14th after two rounds of qualifying that really tested the entire team.  

I was happy with the first run of 5.954/244.38 MPH.  We were 10th the run.  The car was fat, which was okay because we were just looking for a benchmark and wanted to be safe on the run.  

We tried to step it up in the second round, but we just missed it.  Marty ran a 5.998 (236.34 MPH), which dropped us back to 14 heading into our final qualifying Saturday at noon.

The first qualifying run came under very sunny condition, but the afternoon came after a cool down caused by cloud cover, but that didn't make a difference in the run.

Not to make excuses, but we're really working through the issues of everything being new. We're working late into the night to get ready for Saturday.

Frank Manzo is at the top of qualifying after putting up a 5.558/262.54.

Talk to you tomorrow,

Jay
