New to the site. Have been a GM owner my whole life. Would love to see GM bounce back big after their recent bankruptcy. Here are pics to my ride www.dragonraceteam.com

How totally cool is that and what a great idea too. I'm impressed and if I had any extra franklins, I'd really be tempted to buy-in. The page is.....well you know how good it is. Thanks for the post.

I bought the car the beginning of this year. It was a pretty competitive Funny car in the IHRA. It was white with blue flames then. IHRA cancelled the class 1 week after I received the car. The car needed a lot of money put into it to go run in the NHRA. It needed $20K for a screwblower and about $10K for additional NHRA required items. So, I really did not want to spend another $30K after I just gave $70K for the car. Plus the previous owner told me the motor was fresh and $7K later at Fowler Engines in Columbus Ohio it was. So, I decided to sit out this year to try and raise sponsor money. We raised about $4k, so that is why we had to go run the car once this year. Here is the link to my first time in a Funny Car and the article they did on me.
