Default Congratz to Ralph !!!

Hey Ralph, Congratz on running a New Personal Best !!! Man, it sure was HOT @ Cecil. A cooler day would have netted 7.70's for sure, but you did great despite Mother Nature's heat wave. 7.90 @ 174 MPH is INSANELY COOL to see in person.

From the stands it looked like an awesome pass. That truck is really BADAZZ! Great drive, Ralph. Get some weather, get it to leave a bit straighter, and the Gen 1 record is yours. After all the work you have done you deserve the rewards. Hope I am there to see it happen.

Side by side 7s at Pinks will be awsome!

Jim

Always a blast to see you run!
Congrats.

I was behind you in line to race. I was trying to watch your run and do a burnout at the same time. I did the burnout by seat of the pants. I didn't check the mirrors to see if both wheels were spinning. I didn't watch the tach or speedo. I just let them spin while watching the pass before me. I didn't get your mph, but I saw 7.90 and let out a WooooooHoooo in my mind. You made a very cool memory for me. Thanks.


FF

Ralph congrats on the pass! I am not sure if I got to meet you during the day but I did see your truck run, it is awesome! It was also cool checking out the video-I think FF is going Hollywood, he is famous too, LOL!
