Robert & Zippy... Again!! 
Robert Hight earns 3rd Funny Car victory in a row at Southern Nationals
Published May 19, 2014·
Associated Press
COMMERCE, Ga. – Robert Hight raced to his third Funny Car victory in a row and fourth overall this season on Monday at the rain-delayed NHRA Southern Nationals.
Hight, the 2009 Funny Car world champion, defeated John Force Racing teammate Courtney Force in a thrilling final at Atlanta Dragway with a performance of 4.049 seconds at 315.05 mph in his Ford Mustang.
Force, who was trying to earn the 100th victory for women in NHRA history, trailed in her Mustang with a 4.117 at 316.01. It was the sixth final-round appearance in a row for Hight, who extended the John Force Racing team's consecutive final round streak to 14 races.
"We've just got to take it one run at a time," said Hight, who won his 33rd career event.
"It's a total team effort. First round I was able to save it and pedal the car. Second round my team definitely saved me. My brain got a mental overload. Luckily my team gave me a 4.05 that run. After that we got in sync, we were back as a team again."
Spencer Massey (Top Fuel), Jeg Coughlin (Pro Stock) and Eddie Krawiec (Pro Stock Motorcycle) also were winners at the NHRA Drag Racing Series event.
In Top Fuel, Massey beat Doug Kalitta with a 4.269 at 245.85 to claim his first win of the season and 15th of his career. Massey became the third Don Schumacher Racing driver to win a Top Fuel event in 2014, joining teammates Antron Brown and Spencer Massey.
Jeg Coughlin powered his Dodge Dart to his 57th career Pro Stock win with a 6.558 at 211.63, defeating rival Greg Anderson in the final. The win earned Coughlin, the five-time and reigning Pro Stock world champion, his third career victory at Atlanta and first of the season.
Krawiec was the dominant racer all weekend in Pro Stock Motorcycle, racing to victory as the No. 1 qualifier over teammate Andrew Hines with a final-round performance of 6.806 at 197.45. It was the first win of the season for Krawiec, a three-time Pro Stock Motorcyle world champion. It was his third win at Atlanta Dragway.

**** that, those ****ers would be giving me a Challenger or something to drive if I just bought a new car and it was already ****ed after 200 miles. Hell, I'd be camped out for an SRT vehicle, **** them. That's a lot of money to be stranded that soon. Somebody would have a sore **** hole.

Hey Jill,
My 92 year old great aunt is a recipe freak, and baking nut. Collecting recipes is basically all she has left in life, its her hobby along with baking. I told her about those pecan pie muffins you mentioned a while back. Well long story short, she made some for me yesterday and they are awesome. She's an excellent baker, she said she had a similar recipe she got from someone down here in Mississippi years ago. They had too much butter, she would eliminate the 1/3rd stick of butter, just use one stick, and add one teaspoon of vanilla extract. Said that was what she would do next time. Can
t wait, because she is one of the best bakers ever.
Even had a recipe for a pecan muffin with chocolate in it that sounded amazing.

Jeep was low on oil. Not sure if it was a leak or not right now. The service manager is keeping it for another night to be sure everything is okay.

My machines and I have an agreement as soon as I take ownership - I take care of them and they take care of me.
Seems like no one checks fluids or tire pressures any more.

You mean you actually trust the monkey's at the stealership? Its not like the one's doing dealer prep are the highest paid on the lot.

You do remember how many 5.0's were low from the dealer/factory right? And how many used quite a bit of oil at first - but many here were shocked when they were 2 & 3 qts low. Plenty of posts were made.
Until you establish usage, frequent checking is just good practice.

Regardless, that's what dealer prep is for. And that's what (wise) owner's do next before they start it up the first time. You do remember how many 5.0's were low right?
