Soul Train Dragster Update - June 21, 2010 

The following is an e-mail from Traci Sterbens' father.  (Traci was a contender to drive the racecar.)

Jim: Thank you for your post.  With Traci moving to Orlando we are both losing, but she is winning.

This is a great career opportunity for her.  I felt she worked hard to be up front and honest with you

and am glad you see it that way.  Thank you for treating her with respect, it means a lot to her and us.

Good luck with your search.  You have built a great car and team and deserve a committed driver.

(Signed) Greg Sterbens

In my life, this is the most professional person applying for a position that I have ever come across.

I have been in business for myself for over 40 years.  Traci is a class act and a role model for anybody

out there applying for a job.  Call her and get some pointers!

We had a visitor come to give us some racing pointers. 

Yes, it's Jack Beckman, NHRA Funny Car Driver! 

Thank you, Fast Jack!
