Tony Schumacher drove the US Army sponsored Top Fuel dragster to victory at the Texas Motorplex (near Ennis) this past Sunday. In the final round, he beat nemesis Larry Dixon and the Al Anabi sponsored dragster (the car Tony's crew chief and old team defected to after last season).
The victory vaulted Schumacher into first place in the points standings, with 4 races to go in the season. Things are looking good fo rhe US Army to claim another NHRA championship.
10/06 Update - Yesterday's rain delayed NHRA Mid-South nationals, at Memphis, saw The Sarge reach the final round. He lost, but going that far into eliminations extended his point lead considerably. Looking good for that championship!

Tony and his crew are doing great. To lose Allan and the whole team of mechanics was a gigantic problem. And then to have Jonson put Larry in the driver's seat of his car was a brilliant move for him. But Schumacher racing has shown they are still to be feared. It'll be interesting to see the two best top fuel drivers slug out the next four races. Go Tony. Great guy, not just a great driver.
