ImageBuckle up friends and fans, it's bound to be a bumpy ride, as the Frantic team has been preparing for the 08' season that kicks off at BYRON Dragway on May 4th. It has been many years since either Dragster Dave or I raced at Byron. I actually have an old picture of my dragster on the line at Byron with Dragster Dave and his rear engine dragster in the background. Although we never raced against each other it's cool knowing we both have "roots" at Byron. My history there started with rude awakening, we were camping just down river from the town of Byron, when a HUGE roar startled us. I asked "What the heck is that noise!?", it was very loud and thinking we're in the middle of no where I couldn't imagine what it was. A friend said that it must be a car on the dragstrip across the river, and asked if I wanted to go see it. So we piled into his 71' Mustang and headed over there. Once we got into the track I recall being awestruck by all the cars and motorcycles that occupied the pits. We worked our way around the pits then headed toward the grandstand. A large crowd had gathered, I pushed my way thru to see what the big deal was and there she was, the REAL Chi-town Hustler. It was an incredible sight, I remember standing there for what seemed like days watching as Austin Coil paced around her making sure everything was ready for their run. I didn't even care if they were going to race some guy named the "Snake".  It was a Chicago style matchrace and we had planned on spending the day, man what a day I was hooked forever.
That was 34 years ago, and I'll never forget it. I had a chance to tell Austin Coil this story while he was checking out the Frantic Fueler. He just laughed, chewing on his tooth pick and asked how many MILLIONS of dollars that day has cost me so far. I just smiled and said, getting to race a FUEL DRAGSTER .... PRICELESS!
C'ya out there!
