well, you would have to see the video of that run to understand, as he was trying to get familiar with staging and leaving the line he over reved it a bit which although resulted and almost a pro-mod record 60' time it got a little hairy where he had to back out at the 330' mark. I have to give it to the man his first time out and he ran Pro-mods #1 guy Quain Scott and did very well agienst him. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCStory.asp?ID=133138 when i was a kid i used to always try and get on the starting line at raceway at night of thrills for the Pro-mods, in my opinion they are the toughest cars to control, thats why I am so impressed by Joes driving ability and my brothers knowladge of the car. It wasnt until i saw them working on teh fuel set up, the clutch set up, the blower etc. that I truly developed an apreciation for that machine, just sitting in it in the garage i get scared, i could not imagine driving that. One time I asked my brother what it was like to run under a second 60' because he has and his only analogy was "imagine you being stoped at a red light and getting rear ended by a 18-wheeler doing 60mph, if your not used to it, your body just hurts" one day i hope to be in the 8's I couldnt imagine 5's
