2007 NHRA Season

#76 01-01-2007, 07:29 AM

Well my "Nanny" is from London, England and she tells me that her people are saying that the British are putting together a 2 car Top-Fuel team to be funded by Queen Elizabeth & Margaret Thatcher ! They will showcase the "Royal British Navy" dragster to combat with Shoe and his US Army car. Word is, Tony Blair will Crew Chief and Boy George will be the driver. The 2nd Dragster will fly the "Beefeaters Gin" colors to try and compete with the Budweiser rail, to be piloted by David Beckham and tuned by Sir Paul McCartney. The rumor out of the "Royal Race Shop", housed in Buckingham Palace, is that both teams will use a Double Decker bus as their tow-vehicle. The crew members will be made up of faithful Palace Guards and the PR Director for both teams will be none other than Sir John Hutchinson.........at least to hear my Nanny tell it anyway.
This outta be good................

I thought Alan and Fry were going to be driving along with Jack and me in the Top Fuel car. If you really want to drive I will put another car out there and you can run with us.

That would make Don's year right there!!! Can you imagine a team with Alan Johnson and Austin Coil both on it? That would be a DSR rout. Don, you know I'm a Force guy, but good luck in 07. I always enjoy the fight.

And people wonder why this part of the year is called "the silly season." Should be over in about three weeks...

#84 01-01-2007, 01:58 PM

Pete and Don,

Shame on you guys! The 1st of the year was supposed to be the announcement of our new "Arrangement"!

Maybe I will just call it all off now!

the Queen has invited both Alan Johnson and Don Schumacher to a dinner party. She will then Knight them both with the understanding that they allow Prince Philip to drive a TF car for the 2007 season.
Lets see how this sounds=Sir Donald Schumacher
Have to admit it has a certain ring to it.
let the silly season continue

these top secret photos were taken from deep inside the top secret DSR facility
located in the woods of Idaho. See I knew nobody knew Don has a very secretive shop. He is to busy to visit this shop what with all the shirts he has to OK etc.
