Well, it's just a theory. A completely baseless and unfounded theory, but a theory nonetheless. In reality, they did quite well and my stunning good looks only played a minor role in their success.

Brittany Force finished third in Top Fuel while Courtney Force landed a fourth place finish in the Funny Car division. Their dad, John Force, won the Funny Car championship so all in all a successful day for the family!

Del Worsham had a strong weekend finishing 5th, just behind Courtney, in his DHL Funny Car. This guy is one of the chillest, most laid back people I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. He has the quintessential southern California surfer-like personality that you can't help but like him.

Thanks also to the legendary Ron Capps for taking the time to say hello. He placed 9th in the Funny Car series, but with 42 career wins under his belt already (and a solid 2nd place in the Mello Yello Funny Car standings) I'm sure he's prepared for his next race.

Having grown up two towns over in Kingston, it is great to see the huge events that New England Dragway brings to the area every season. Be sure to check out their schedule of upcoming events at newenglanddragway.com. Likewise, you can keep up with your favorite racers at NHRA.com!
