That sucks.. Hope Joel gets better soon.
What about that Joe Joe guy? Wasn't that his name? Didn't he hit 10s the same time that Parish and Kelly did?
Joejoe's best time to date is an 11.85 with his old set up. I think he has the fastest whipple truck in here. No internals at all.
Joejoe is actually in pretty bad shape. He (not his car or truck) was hit by a car and pinned up against an 18 wheeler. He ended up having open heart surgery, both broken legs, and spinal cord tweaked a little. He is being transferred to a local hospital next weekend cause since the accident he has been in a hospital in Seattle. Doctors predict he should be walking by mids of March.
We are taking his truck to the track on the 2nd of April which is opening day. His truck is in good hands till him and his family come back home

I think there's alot of people with high hopes, but they just simply aren't going to be able to power theirselves into the 10s. It's going to take some complete swapping around of other componenents such as suspension,etc. If it were that easy everybody would be out of the 11s and into the 10s already.
Curt will dominate all really soon though!!!
