Congrats to Bob and all his helpers. Well done and well deserved. I got the same email from Bob Martin and it said that the photographer wasn't able to get the picture of the first run that was in the high 7s. The picture of the 8.0 was a second run (wow, the consistency is awesome). Bob mentioned he would love to be at Columbus and would try to be there. He also said that he felt there was more in the motor.

Wow! Congrats to that. Now whats up Randy and Teds sleeve? With the EMC coming I know Ted is busy, but I also know Randy just wants to go FAST! Those Aussies have their work cut out for them if they ever want the record back.

Here are a couple more pics that Bob sent. The picture of the dragster leaving the line is the 7.96 pass. Observe the throttle opening as He had to back out of the throttle due to the hard launch. He mentioned that the wheelie bar received a bad bend in it on that launch.
