Back in 2005, our daughter Stacie won a Wally for winning her class at the National Hot Rod Association Nationals at Bandimere Speedway in Denver, becoming the "fastest chick in Colorado". If you have ever followed drag racing, you know a Wally is a very big deal.
Not long afterwards, life intruded and Stacie quit racing for many years. But - bad news for the competition - Stacie is back! With the support of her fiance Jessie and their performance shop, Jessie's Performance, she was behind the wheel of her 2004 GTO, a 6.2 liter, normally aspirated 437 hp V-8, at a testing session last night at Bandimere, and turned a very respectable 12.98 seconds at 108 mph. Here's her last run of the evening (she's the one on the right):
That Wally has been kind of lonely all these years. I'm betting it will have company on the mantle soon.
