2008 NHRA points season to start

OK, not since 2004 have I attempted such a busy schedule of racing. I am again running the NHRA points series again with my SVX. It still runs in stock form with some weight reduction. First week in May will see a fresher motor and 4:44 gears. There is more in the works, but thats all I will say for now. If anyone is interested, I will be doing my best to update round my round from the track on my race site www.teamsvxracing.com. The site is no where near completed, but its working at a level to post my results. Watch for changes. I skipped my opportunity to attend Reading this year due to the importance of this years racing events. There is a GREAT chance you will see an SVX on ESPN2 later this summer. Doubt me if you will, but I hope to do nothing but impress and surprise. I hope to once again gain national attention in an SVX (besides a hot car being driven through the golf course in northern Seattle).

On a side note, I would love to thank the following SVXWN members for their personal parts contributions to see my 2008 year starts off successfully.
  • SVXride
  • Benebob
  • TomsSVX
  • SVXfiles
  • Hocrest
Watch the race site for updates.
