Default Congratulations to forum member Oklahoma for winning his first bracket race

Hi,

I started this thread on Sunday, but I think my title was misleading (Congratulations to Oklahoma). J.D. Burford's forum name is Oklahoma, and he is a family physician in Greenville, SC. Anyway, he won his first ever bracket race Saturday, in the extremely competitive Footbrake (Pro) class at Atlanta Dragway. There were more than 70 cars entered in his class, and he got the job done with his totally stock Corvette, beating out three of the top Footbrake racers in the Southeast along the way, as well as several other racers. My thread with the story and pictures is:
