So Lucas, Troxel, Ashley & Densham are a full team now? Saweeeeet.
I'm so happy for Gary Densham. That guy has worked his butt off for this opportunity. Best of luck to Team Knoll!

Let's hope that between the Torco and Lucas money he gets a decent budget to work with. He got the weenie from AAA and Force and he certainly is a decent guy and not a bad driver.

We are excited and looking forward to working with Gary and his team. There is no doubt that Gary is a class act and a great veteran driver. Look for lots of exciting news from our camp coming soon... We are looking to come out strong.  Happy Thanksgiving.... For more info see my post in the other thread that says Douglas will be tuning my car (obviously someone made a big Mistake).

Thanks Mike , I've been a fan for a long time. As for an opinion about Gary just ask Force , he practically raised him. LOL
But Mike you an Evan may have to pony up some big bucks as Gary may be designing a huge BBQ pit that will need its own Semi to pull it.
But don't despair as the more he cooks the more he wins which ain't a bad deal either.
Just hope he hasn't consulted Jarrod as he is into really big.

Thats the first thing that I thought of too. I know that Torco, not Lucas, will be the sponsors on the Funny Cars, but can't figure out the connection being made with Lucas on the dragster side. Just wondering if the Lucas sponsorship of Dunn's will go by the wayside. Anyone know anything?
