Finally, at #21 is Don, aka ksj, with his Red 2012 Challenger R/T. Self professed Drag Week junkie and constant thorn in my literary side! He easily should have been slotted in front of the front scatcher and other Challenger R/T, if not for the peculiar time slip he elected to turn in at Ennis. What happened Don, rest of your group wouldn't hang around and let you have another lap? Mike and Vickie in a hurry to get to Pizza Hut?? Enquiring minds want to know!

I've always felt like the premise of Drag Week was based on the movie Two Lane Blacktop. One of the underlying themes of that movie was the competition between the 55 Chevy Hot Rod, and the store bought, brand new 70 GTO with the driver who has the brochure memorized. Funny, but 40 years later, you look at the forums, and the same discussion goes on today about Drag Week, there is still the same kind of disdain from some towards the modern iron!
