 funny you bring up Gary Scelzi...we put him SHOWTIME USA for a warmup in Chowchilla...Hannes wadded up the boat on the next pass...while in Pomona, we went by to see Gary..he waves me in the pits while he was doing his autograph session...he asks me.."Did your driver really wreck the boat after I sat it it?" I told him yes and he told me someone came by to show him a vid of him in the boat and then the following crash.. I told him it sucked but we built a new one..I asked if he could return a favor and let me sit in the car for a warmup...all I got was "your kidding right?" ....Shortly after that HE got to warm up the car....On another note...for those of you that go to Pomona..you can always go visit the smaller teams in Top Fuel..they are more receiptive to people want to come buy and ask questions and check out the cars..as long as they are not in the middle of a turn around..Your bigger teams..lot of times are  "just too busy"
