  • Salute to the Gebharts!

    The Gebhart family win of Spirit of Drag Week '14 was most deserved.

    The fact that they run this deal as a family is awesome.

    The unbelievable, sleep-depriving struggle they had to get that wire-frying Dakota to the finish line was epic.

    Two cars going multiple rounds in the Shoot-Out was impressive . . . not to mention they almost won the darn thing . . . .

    And the integral role they played in getting the 268P Valiant into new hands and back to the track so it could win Daily Driver in tribute to its late former builder-driver is laudable.

                  I think they're never really ready until after the awards ceremony is over

                        he was a little stressed early in the week, then settled down once they got moving. But that's life with siblings.
