Actually my dad's favorite drivers are his biggest competitors like Whit, Al Hoffman, Cruz Pedregon... my dad loves all that drama, it's great for the sport and he loves racing with that extra motivation! He thrives on it!

I've turned a few times in my funny car...it didn't go well...
I have no immediate plans to compete. I recently renewed my license in my sister Courtney's Traxxas Funny Car however I have a 1 year old and a 2 year old so I'm up to my neck in diapers at this time in my life.

Safety innovations will never have an end. It will be an ongoing challenge as technology changes, and race cars get faster. It will never be 100% safe but we can do the best at this moment in time to make it as safe as possible.

Going over 300 miles per hour is crazy! But to be honest, the fast runs are sometimes smoother and don't feel as fast when everything is going right. It's the runs that have issues, tire smoke, or if you drop cylinders...that's when things get crazy!
I grew up in NHRA Drag Racing so we were introduced to it at a young age. We saw our dad crash and catch fire a lot over the years. Now as adults we do understand the dangers but we also have a love for this sport that we can't ignore. It's very addicting!
We love Graham! He has hit it off great with our family. And yes, the common dinner table conversation is which motor sport is better...that will never get solved of course!
I drive a Lincoln MKS which I love. Before that, my only other car was a Ford F150 that I also loved. I used to drive my wolf dogs all round town. Now I drive my 2 little boys...and cats of course!
Winning the US Nationals in Indy in my Castrol Ford Mustang Funny Car two years in a row...it doesn't get much better than that!
No they are sleeping...
