| Lovin' that 'Stang Dan. Looks pretty bad-ass! Looks like the race is coming up quick. Only a few more months until "The Big Go" here in Indiana-can't wait! I love the smell of nitro in the morning! Good luck in the race! Brad |

| Hi jame's i have footage of racing last time out but i can't figure out how to download my hi def 1080p footage from camcorder to download into my computer the software is'nt working.
I even bought a $60 dollar program that is supposed to work.it's not working.it's very frusterating.1. I must be getting to old,2. To old school get me the beta machine or VHS back.3.to computer complicated.
I can't get it figured out.
I'm leaving for Joliet tonight or now it's early friday morning 3 A.M.I'll be back sunday.
thank you all for the Happy well wishing and support thank you,Dan. |

| Hell Yeah Pink's All out Show was fkn awesome.It was an honor for me to race the event.A lot of prestigue to be able to of been a part of racing history.This was Pink's first stop at Chicago in their 5 year's ruuning the show they did an 8 sec. field also for the first time it was an awesome show can't wait for it to be on tv. I made three passes and put three Chevy's on the trailer.My car was flying,i made my best passes ever with my "B" motor. Everyone thought that they were going to do a 10-11sec. field it's what the show alway's pic's.They did a first ever 8sec. field show mainly cause Chicago RT.66 track is historic and has the fastest street car's anywhere, so they wanted to do a a show up big time.Everyone was shocked no one would of ever guessed or know what Rich Christiansan"main guy of the show"had in order for this event.. I made the bumpspot,I was up on the board for cars to pick but i had my 10.sec motor in car for this weekend, i for sure would off been looking good if they would of picked the 10sec.class.I ran a 10.24 on friday.and 10.13,10.18 on saturday.I put three Chevy's on the trailer,beating them by a alot.If i had kept my "A" 8 sec.motor in the car i would of made the show,but who knew,Rich was going to pick an 8 sec class.WOWWWW. I had a blast.I have over 100 pic's and several video's i took at the show.I'll post up some pic's,I hope i can figure out how to download the video soon. Dan.      |

| Oh man it was an awesome day.Everybody who was anybody and all the street racing legend's were there.There were ton's of people their it was like an national event.My pit area was a mile and a half from track that's how far backed it was paked with competitior's,and then there was still people coming in heavy after i got there. RT.66 raceway is like the superbowl of drag racing track.It's a state of the art race track professional grade.This is where the NHRA race with there 4 sec. cars. I have some great video.All i have to do is figure out how to download it without it fk'n up.For some reason the footage run's real slow or freezes i have the right software i think it's just not working,it's realy frusterating. The footage is badass.You can hear the track annoucer talk about my car,say my full name and the Pink's annoucer's were putting in a few plug's for me on the radio too.I raced three different chevy's all Camaro's.All of them had pretty paint job's and were all blow hard's.One guy was pitted three spot's down and worked on his car all nite.I blew their fkn door's off. I can't wait to you guy's see this video. Dan. |

| Killer runs Dan. That second car didn't have a chance.  At least whoever the camera man was got the most important part not shaky. Yhea too bad they didn't tell you they were going for an 8 sec. car. Would love to have seen that.
