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!!!
