I've been telling you guys to watch this kid and even posted a video about him on Monday...

With Casey Grisel as CrewChief on the Darien&Meadows A/Fuel dragster, Courtney Force has won her first National event! :beers:

When the team went to 2 cars, it was decided that 18 yr old Casey would be CrewChief for Courtneys car and Jerry Darrien would oversee Brittanys car and the team as a whole. Since dividing up responsibilities, Courtney has qualified for every event under the watchful eye of Grisel. From hit-and-miss to National Event winner in just 5 events!:hurray:

Casey Grisel is the real deal and it won't be long before he's following in the footsteps of Robert Hight and Mike Neff. Check-out my video on YouTube "Casey Grisel: the next top gun" for a look at this remarkable young man.:thumbsup:

Didn't she race her sister Brittney in the final and Brittney red lighted?

That's correct...it was the semis. Brit did redlight but in my opinion, that's an improvement over her usual .153 reaction times. She's been succesful of late and maybe she's starting to get that competitive fire that her Dad has. Still...hats-off to Courtney and everyone at Darrien&Meadows. One year ago this week we were in Sonoma just in time to watch them pack-up the trailer as neither girl even qualified for eliminations...
