#23 Jason Ogle Yellow 73 Plymouth 'Cuda
Day 1: 13.65-108.8
Day 2: 12.36-88.9
Day 3: 12.25-111.1
Day 4: 12.19-111.4
Day 5: 12.20-116.6
Final Average: 12.536-107.41

Jason's slow ET on Monday, and bad mph on Tuesday, skewed his average, but the E-body ran well the final three days. After the disappointment of breaking on Day 1 in 2014, it was awesome to see Jason and his son make the full pull in 2015.

Many say that Hot Rod Drag Week is like a fantasy camp for people who fell in love with the 1971 movie "Two Lane Blacktop", and that movie ends with a shot of the hero's car ripping down an air strip.

The news of Jason's passing was a hard thing to deal with, and I've saved this final picture as the way I choose to remember a drag weeker that I wasn't given a chance to say goodbye to.

Godspeed, my friend.
