    John Force outran the rest of the funny cars with a 4.10 today. And Brandon Bernstein had a 3.87 in Top Fuel Dragster. Beautiful day in Phoenix. Most of the cars are staying over for a couple of more days to practice.:)

    Believe me they would have to tape it. A lot of waiting time. They only ran one car at a time. No side by side racing. All of the Force cars ran a 4.11 yesterday.:)

    Where you there today Don? I was on the starting line (in the center of the track next to the burnout box) when the three Force cars ran. Before Heidt ran, John came up and told him that the track made him and Ashley swerve to the left at about 800ft. Then he said something to the effect that he didn't know why he was telling him that, after all he was last years champ. Too funny! The guy cracks me up. I really enjoy his humor.
