Congratulations to Alan O'Brien on his Top Dragster WIN yesterday at the Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series event at Maple Grove Raceway!  In the final, he was .006 / 6.322 (6.29 dial) at 214.31 mph, all with twin-turbocharged Barry Allen AMC power! I had the opportunity to watch 3 of his passes over the weekend from the starting line and, the car is nothing short of amazing.  Every pass I saw, the car went down the track like it was on a string.  Soft at the launch to keep the tires hooked then pour on the boost!  He was in the mid to low 6.30's all weekend and the car never missed a beat.  In the background you can see Alan's Super Comp car, also AMC powered but like me, had to settle for a early 2nd round exit from eliminations.  I'm looking forward to seeing Alan and his son Kevin again soon.  If you get a chance to check this operation out, don't miss it!
Congratulations Alan!
