Have you guys been following the shakeups in NHRA. Massey fired, Worsham replacing Arend, Delago tuning Alexis, Pedregon fired Beard. Said Beard, "Cruz ego bigger than his driving skills".:D:p

Hey guys it is at John's YL shop. If anyone from AZ or NorCal is interested in going, there's an Ayres Suites Hotel and a Denny's right next door off Weir Canyon/Yorba Linda Blvd Exit off the 91. That Hotel is super close to John's shop.:)

I grew up in YL, so when I was younger I used to drive by John's shop all the time, I used to love looking at the Semi's and trucks parked at the shop between events and in the off season.

Yea I caught all that today. I like your updates on all that is NHRA because I don't subscribe or have the time to follow as close as you do.
Massey is an arrogant prick from what I've gathered from a friend that volunteers at Infineon every year.

Did Force buy the Bernardo Yorba family home and build a mansion on it?

I pop in at competition plus once a day and skim the headlines. It seems every story breaks there first.;)

Yes he did. You can see it from the 91. Not sure if he lives there or not. Him and Laurie lived in seperate houses a few years back. But I do see them together at the gym I go to in Yorba Linda. I will be at the show. Jay Leno usually has a car there.

Go early it gets a little crowded for parking and you may have to park and walk a little ways. They have had the Cal Trans portable signs up for a couple weeks promoting the show at the Savi Ranch entrances.

I liked it too. Guess it was not popular enough. You going to the show today? I read Courtney and Brittany just got back from a vacation in China and Thailand. Courtney got 20K for winning Road to the Future award(Rookie of the year).:)

Me too, I enjoyed watching it. John and Kenny B. were always my favorite driver's when I was younger.:) Brittany and Courtney were funny on the TV show. I thought I heard recently that Courtney might have a reality show in the works? But I might be wrong on that, not sure?. Thats cool that Court won the Rookie of the year! She drove very well this year. I'm looking forward to seeing Britt in the TF car in Pomona at the Winternationals! Idk about today, the weather is very gloomy and might rain.

Thanks for sharing your pictures Bobby, are you aka Havasu1986? I would like to go through the JFR museum if I were to go. Is that old truck(blue dodge?) the one they used to haul firewood in an episode of Driving Force?
