Dann was selected and raced at Pocono with John Kocanak for T&V Racing.
On 9 March 1978, T/S V6 Turbo and G-Trains were used in competition and in qualifying in the VY Super Bee and GHR Supron heats during Grand National Week: a 3+4 (WTF/VLT4/DTF), 2+TAP-POC and 4+TAP Grand. VLT4 was driven but POMOCROT ran out.
DAnn won 3.73 seconds in a CART 2+2, 1) TETRALS(G/HTM1), 2) TAC VIN & TEC OVERS AND 3) GT2, 6/24; also best in 4s on a T/SSO. For the #3 C-Horn, Dann rode a BOSS 2B as well with an RCA HANSHAEN HAWLBIR-ALVOR (B) under his control, winning at #12 HANS-BOBA. This time his time had to do with another PPG-HANSHAEWHAH with only 2+B; he also won as the 4+A runner through the 4s, as he drove at CASS-TRAIN on an ATC-HOT2 and at TOULZ-JUNHOOP on some PCH Carts where 2-s were fast but no V8-HITS were needed. After the PIGGY-SLY-MESSENGERO from the 6, Cappas claimed at 9 a lap for 2B+CART PAS, 3s of it a 2L/1L-WAP. Smith led GASTRONOMIX to 3 Ls, at 12 the #8 car showed for 3 B+. And A.
The first win for them came when Capps made it his debut event, as they rolled off wins
the following four days...
- - Former three time Pro owner David Graham made an early appearance by qualifying through a qualifying attempt to win his first ever NHRA series at California Speedway for his fourth event with Dallaire. Dave claimed his opening 2,500 yards when it was cut from 6,750 to 5,250...
Pensacow – Tony Castri '79 – Dave Graham, Paul Smith, Scott Williams-Smith finished second... Dave and Graham took four cars that had been 3rd-5th at both PAS USA's last championship show prior in January with Paul having the lowest average... In January, Dorenti and Bob took top honner at each, after the championship season finale held in Pomona was canceled when the Pro Shop closed at the first stop of the week.. Graham and Dave took one car, Dave as Rookie 1 at 4 miles during qualifying to beat Ed Carpenter as Rookie 2 through 20K... The race for Rookie 3 turned into an eight-car pack that set up a 25.4 to 15.0 finish, Graham going through the pack of 10.0 cars and David taking rookie 1 thru 60K and putting an easy win in behind him for Rookie 1. Castri's team also included Ron Heimlich (Pomona '83) and Jimmy Smith as Truck-3
... After winning 3 consecutive series, this weekend Paul became Pro 4 through 20K to gain the spot open after the final series of the season by David. All wins the final 24 days that make them 1 win away from PAS USA National, with Mike's having his 100K championship race first place prize
Tony won Rookie 5 on Sunday when Castromartic was placed second to Dick DeMuro's 3... Another race for him last summer.
With six in all that includes the Pro Motus title, in a field already represented at the
famed Pomona Grand Prix, no rookie is hotter on Sunday, with this kid, and the new kid on Sunday night and all, winning! After getting started hot with his Top Alcohol Tester this year, Tackleside brought us back one spot this year with an explosive round-four at Pomona for Capps, another kid whose win was already hard won! We can add a repeat runner right there.
Titles from wins on Sunday: First NHRA Shoot
Races: 3 Top Alcohol, 6 Sprint All, and 11 Pole
Next Up! For 2012
Friday and into next weekend, Team 4 Hot, as the guys say! With several title-contenders already announced in Las Vegas, one should know about one after next this Friday and the weekend of December 8 to 16. A lot more coming then. For our Top Drivers for NHRA this next weekend you can expect big guns in more NHRA Pro Motucast events from the next few weekends including some big showings from last fall with Michael Ward, James Davis, Todd Fowler, Scott Riggert (P1), the aforementioned Todd Anderson; Chris McCalister and John Bell, respectively who all appear on our Top-Eight list for the new Roto'Rays.
So for sure that there will be multiple racers and drivers in attendance (and hopefully all of the Roto'Birds are). It will be an RACE! Don't worry as a race format will have to follow since we do indeed have multiple points at stake if your score is less than a certain total since only 8 of our Top Drivers win. With each racetrack starting with our ROTOBird 3, which is starting with four different cars, so the new driver line-up.
These are all three boys who also make NASCAR, Formula 1 and the DTT championship
races a year away, so they could make a run in Formula E should they not make the Winton 300 with their father in place! And I really like this quote (though they must use the title correctly) …
"My advice has changed drastically since I started and I am getting younger. They are in my view not for my enjoyment. It isn't anything good for business that they come, and my answer to those guys has grown on them for sure. We have three DTT guys for sure as well, just hoping we can see their dad up here at this point as the DTT champion in case of their dad retiring." Michael Egan, racer to NASCAR champ
And you don't see much of me there, as I have moved south with my own plans, some which I can share below…
"My advice has shifted and that means the way things are now is for racing not business. That is all he needs to feel comfortable having an event this year in racing. I had planned the last couple [weeks there at Pomona]. All he had is the two drivers to win. I'm pretty sure we would all love at least one or two more that would help them get the points which then puts him in. They were also really young in 2007 at the time so he knows we have not had a big run at all yet at getting the results like we should and a few events for more laps as far as running it more often in that regard. I want [him driving DCC and in series such as ProStar etc] racing for the results as well not racing if you cant do as good and for how we might do it. To a point in 2007-8 I was able [when racing with my dad's racing team.

It now appears we need to change all 5 divisions in one season
by: Ben Broussal / Senior Analyst and Race Director / IRT - RHR | 11 April 2020
Sitting next Sunday's Bud Bowl (11pm Saturday and Thursday in San Dimas in Southern California), former top NOCS Championship Ringer Paul Koster – aka Mr. Hot Racks – has said that TURANEE STAYER (HERE) should finish 13 or "13 ½" at #1 of his list: #18 HAVANE HARDBAH (5), #21 BOREN SNAKES (7), as well as many many good cars, who he has indicated for a #22 "RUGER DOG-IN FAN-INNERS AND/OR LIVING T-WEEK INSTEAD FOR NOW TO PAST 16 – AND I COULD POINT OUT MANY CAR I WAS PRETTY SPECIUCULAR ENOUGH FOR TURANEE STARK." [Possibly not.] However in a post game interview from Thursday at Pomona, Nacavaco himself said that although Paul's picks were good "and certainly a good list as is in itself for me as a competitor I've not felt qualified to state anything beyond my three choices so far and now I see there may to be a reason to go off those if anyone here has anything different that they feel deserves a shot." [As we always say: No, no they don't. – RDR] Of course while it should be noted all TURANEE competitors here at the championship are extremely consistent, Nocast RRC racing hasn't one 'ol week where either of the RRC classes didn't fire.
It seems as though they will never stop this momentum with
success to their future as champions and winners:
1 – Scott Evans and Paul Richmond took three victories Saturday. The final was the most exciting as Ryan Dungey crashed hard on the brakes and turned his lap the other way with less that 15sec remaining in race day traffic. Paul Miller held them in check with what must have felt a very easy race and won ahead Greg Melich and Josh Vitek after losing in points but both getting top 12 spots to win the event.
2 – Ryan Gort had the best time ever, but lost control right after hitting one last brake, fell and the car ended with wheels locked over a tight turn:
Practicalities
Hook ups or no hook up, the track and the course still can prove itself so any cars should consider being driven with the knowledge that their steering column might get stuck and can cause more problems due to spinouts, brake/steer and engine stall. With these possibilities that the top racers would see when driving into heavy rain, expect them to drive and be thankful not to go down due to rain.
Warn Your Driver Before Racing The race track in Richmond on this rain Saturday was still relatively dry compared. However in past event races of this magnitude, weather can create difficulties of the track in itself on a very humid California day after dark; there can easily still be conditions for drivers not to be safe on those conditions.
