My take on the Dutch........
It was a great event i felt as i witnessed a great deal by one engine program when you have 5 cars all running respectable numbers. This is saying a lot for the Barton Engine program.
Charlie was making serous power running 162, but getting it to hook every time and the round he lost i was standing on the line, he first spun and 100 feet out or so it when into tire shake big time.
Anyhow it was a neat race, and how many time has it been in the past when all 4 semi finalist goes 8.3's going into that round and its still a anybody could win event.
I also want to thank Ray & David inviting me to come and take a tour of Ray Barton Racing Engines on Monday, i was truly impressed with all the operation going on there. I have never seen so many hemi blocks and toys to play with in one building.

PS watch for the big drop off leaving there drive, i ripped all the wiring out of my trailer dragging leaving the lot, lol.
