Re: great job by team enders today!

It's not like her lights were way late, Erica cut a .062 light in the semis .... WJ cut a .132 (!) light whenever he was eliminated ... oh yeah ... I think it was a round before Erica. No one is in here busting WJ's balls for cutting a light that would have been late in the fuel categories. Erica will be fine .... holeshots happen to everybody in pro stock that's just the way it is.

not to mention that you can add all three of her RT's together and still have beat WJ off the line. Not bashing the professor at all but he has been late so far this season.

Another thing that no one has mentioned is that with Enders team continuing to make power/performance improvements and the adjustments that come with that it may take a few more passes to get "back in her zone". She was consistent, if not stellar.

Let's give Rodger Brogden and his crew some props here for the hard work he did testing in Houston last weekend. I'm sure the info he got that he shares with the Enders team paid off this weekend.

Give me a shot. Then Jeff, when I get left on 3 out of
3 rounds of eliminations and lose because of that,
will you say I did a "awesome driving job"?
Credit where credit is due.

She Talked about how she has heard all the time how she couldn't do it(I have heard that my whole life and learned how to believe it when I was younger) and how it made her want it even more. And she said with conviction "I'm not a quitter!".I like that.

Excellent point Dave! Roger tested while the Enders car remained on the west coast after Pomona. It's clear these two teams really do share data, and with Nickens building bad bullets, these two cars will continue to improve. In fact, check out Erica's e.t.'s in eliminations versus Greg Andersons...when you do you won't blink for a while. She was just as quick as GA...and he IS the standard in the class.

Congrats to Roger for helping Gregg and Erica. My guess is they owe Roger dinner....

John, no offense and you are correct, but I dont think GA will be losing any sleep over EE anytime soon.

I think it would be very arrogant and shortsighted for anyone in pro stock to overlook a team that had made marked improvements over a very short time. I guarantee you GA doesn't look "past" anyone on Sunday, anyone in the 16 car field CAN win. If she gets her RT's back to where they were last year (which i think will come with steady seat time, something she has lacked over the last few months) and their performance continues become more consistent, they will giving everyone in PS a headache.

No, no, no....I didn't mean that GA should be concerned with Erica, or anyone else's performance. I just meant to point out that Greg is THE standard in the class and she ran as well as he did. I'll guarantee you that every team in Pro Stock looks at the Summit cars as the baromometers of the class.

Make no mistake....Greg is the MAN. Running similarly to him is what every car out there strives for these days. I just think it's cool that Erica ran that well.

It is great to see Erica go some rounds. Lets hope she can repeat. Pro Stock is so competitive and everyone is always looking to step up.
