I really don't keep time tickets but I did find this old one.After over 50 years of clutching ya just don't think about saving Time Tickets. About the only thing I have kep is some of my old licenses...
I guess I'm not a Key Board Driver...

AF150
ya I did, I had my eyes operated on for cataracts and corrective linses installed to make my eyes more light sensitive an eye drops plus snort puer oxygen before I strap in, that's what happen when you get old, Ask john Force and watch what he does when getting ready to strapin and run,lol That time slip was from 1997, about 16 years ago and I was 56 years old then, plus I have made some correction on the chassis. one of the problems with front motor dragster running a glide and chassis flex,to much power and not enough Tire with a 12" tire. My recommendation to anyone wanting to run a fed would be try to run under a 150 mph, and above 9.99 (slower) that way it's cheeper to run and you can have fun without all the expense of chassis cert, the rules are not near the trouble with nhra. Read the nhra rule book close and don't read what you can do but read between the lines.. But if you got more money than Gxd you want to spend then go for it, I'm sure there are a lot of Manufactures just waiting for you out there. lol Back in the 1990t I saw Don Garlits on TNN nhra today in an interview and he was ask about a part on his car (where did he get it) fishing for info and Don said to the interviewer  (quote) You know I don't run that store bough junk)
and immediately went to commercial.. lol
Thanks for the memories
