Here are some highlights since we last talked. We have officially moved to Daytona Beach. We are in our new shop full time and have just purchased our new home!!! With the help from a friends and lot of very dedicated Embry-Riddle students, things are really starting to take shape in the new shop. A lot of back breaking work and so many long hours have gone into making this place shine!!! We can't move into our house for a few more weeks, but that works out as we are on the road racing for most of the summer.
Racing has been amazing. The new 2011 Embry-Riddle jet dragster is running great. She didn't have very many bugs, I think we are getting a handle on these jet cars. The Miller jet dragster continues to shine with her large fire!!! We have put many miles on both rigs getting them from Bradenton, FL to Norwalk, OH twice and just leaving Maple Grove Raceway.
For up to date news, we will be running at 3 NHRA National events this year. We are kicking it off with the US Nationals in Indy!!! Then we go back to Maple Grove and finally we hit Firebird Raceway Park in AZ. Jets have not run at National events in over 15 years. We can't wait to show everyone a little smoke and fire!!!!
Andrew is going into the 9th grade. Scary, I remember when he was so little and the only thing he cared about was his hot wheels cars. Soon he will be driving a real car. Chris has been very busy at the shop and just made a trip out to Prescott, AZ to catch up with the Embry-Riddle students working on a jet drag
ster!!! All seems to be coming together. I hope that many of you check out the website www.ElaineLarsen.com to see where we are racing next and if you want up to date info, join my facebook page.
I hope everyone has a great summer and we will see you at the races.
luv ya,
