Default CONGRATS to Brian Cotton!

Brian completed his runs for his NHRA License:
We want to thank the officials at Cecil County Dragway and Doug Hecker.
Here are some of the numbers.............

Best 60'---------1.366

Best Light-------.007

Best MPH-------151.05

Best ET---------9.037

He also had one run that aged both Jack and I....(it's harder seeing him in the Pumpkin than Jack.)

He did an awesome job and we are extremely proud of his accomplishment.

We have some pictures and will post them soon. If any of you who where there have pictures (Artie) we hope you will share them.

A big "CONGRATULATIONS" to you Brian!...

As for putting Jack into retirement, well...he's much too young for that !! ...heck, he's two years younger than me!!...

Take care,

Claude.
