‎2011 was quite a year!! We qualified #1 seven times, won four races, won our third consecutive World Finals race, made the seven quickest 1,000’ runs of all time: 3.39, 3.42, 3.43, 3.48, 3.49, 3.50, 3.51 seconds (six of these were run consecutively), reset our own ET record twice (3.488 and 3.396), ran the fastest 1,000’ pass of all time at 261.23, set the MPH record at 258.26 mph, and won both the SDBA and LODBRS Top Fuel Championships! It will be tough to top that next season, but we are certainly going to try!!! Wishing all of our sponsors, families, friends, and fans a fun, safe NYE and we'll see y'all on tour in 2012!

Heading into the LODBRS World Finals at Firebird Raceway, we had a 91 point lead (less than one round) on Spirit of Texas in the run for the championship. We had one run of qualifying on Friday, and two on Saturday. We qualified #1 on Friday with a 3.49 @ 254, and we remained #1 heading into Sunday. Our other qualifying efforts were 3.53 @ 248 and 3.98 @ 166. Spirit of Texas qualified #2, so we only gained 2 points, furthering our lead to 93 points (still less than one round win). We faced the Lucas Oil Speed Sport Special in round one Sunday and ran a 3.51 @ 253, giving us the win as Speed Sports broke right off the line. Spirit of Texas also advanced, which meant we would meet them in the final round to decide the winner of the race AND the winner of the LODBRS championship!! There was so much excitement surrounding this final round! We ran a 3.55 @ 240, Spirit of Texas redlit, and then lost the blower belt shortly after the launch. Both teams put it all on the line for the championship, and it was a thrilling end to this season long battle! This also marks our third consecutive year winning the World Finals at Firebird!!
Thank you to all of our sponsors, fans, friends, and family for your support!! This season was filled with many highs and a few lows, and we are ecstatic to be the 2011 LODBRS & SDBA Top Fuel Hydro Champions!!

The season opener was a little different in some ways, and very familiar in other ways......High winds were in Sunday's forecast, so the officials decided to run all qualifying and eliminations on Saturday. In Top Fuel, it was just Problem Child and Spirit of Texas for this first race. On the first qualifying pass, we had some issues, hit a timing light, and put the first few scratches on the hot rod....Spirit of Texas ran a 3.734. In Q2, we were able to get a small break in the wind and run a beautiful 3.649 to take the #1 spot. S.O.T. did not make a second qualifying pass. In the final, we experienced some equipment failure, and we ran a 3.841, to Spirit of Texas' 3.588. A big congratulations to our pals and their incredible run! We are really looking forward to this exciting racing season and duking it out with our friends....It's bound to be a great show for everyone!!!  

We would like to thank all of our sponsors and fans that came out to support the team........without you it is just not possible!!!!
