The Big Bang.........

This coming weekend is the big one for the Speed Merchants. Due to our limited schedule this season our first and only big race is the 21st Hot Rod Nationals at Indianapolis June 12 - 14. We fired the car up yesterday and after a minor glitch with the oil filter she is ready to go racing.
We are going to be loaded for bear for what looks to be a great event. There are so many Top Fuel cars coming that they are going to have an A and a B field where the top 8 qualifiers will run in the A field and the second 8 in the B field with the B field paying out half of what the A pays.
Our team is extremely excited and we think we are ready to run with the best of them. Lets pray for good weather and safety for everyone.
Corey, Randy and I will leave out with the rig 6 am Thursday morning while David, Bob and John are flying out. A special guest Jimmy Johnson, who was a great help at Bowling Green last year, will also be helping us at this race. Allen Webb can't make this race and we will miss him but we will do our best to make him proud.
I'll have a full race report next week. Keep us in your thoughts and prayers this weekend!
