RPROGASMike Mendenhall, Santee California (# 26 at 6.235 @ 223) hurt the motor on his first pass due to a bad fuel pump (got the head and badly wounded the piston). Along with Dan Binks they worked on it for two days with very few spare parts. The end result was that in the first round it went under (6.186 on a
guess 6.20 dial with a .006 light. Never quit, especially after a 4200 mile round trip tow.
Congratulations to Brandon Miller Champion in the All Stars Top Dragster race....GO BRANDON!!!
