How can you hate? Against all odds in a car that he wasn’t that familiar with Tommy Plott went to another final round this past weekend at Carolina Dragway’s BIG Bucks race. Having broke the motor in his Race tech Dragster on Saturday. Good racing friend Thomas Dunford loaned him his two entries and his Undercover Dragster for Sunday.. Tommy being the person he is, gave away his own entries to Paul Mosley and Floyd Edick so they would have a double in Sunday’s event. Overcoming cooling track conditions and a few little timing gremlins, TP marched to the finals to go runner-up in Dunford’s ride. The red hot Plott had won a week earlier at Farmington ’s Moneyfest 10k in his Beal racing Engines, Hank Thomas Performance Race Tech Dragster. That marked the first time in his long rich racing history at Farmington that he had won that big of a race. Earlier this year Tommy had took the car he treasured the most his 1965 Ford Mustang to a win on a Friday Big Money Gamblers race. Some fifteen years later and a lot of work by him and friends the old “Slow Ride” was back on track as the “Fast Ride.
That shows if you attack something with a passion like Tommy Plott you can over come anything. Wife Sherry Plott “says we may not have the Dragster ready for Kinston (the first on January 2011) but a red hot Tommy and the Mustang will be ready”. I here you gal….when your hot your hot and Tommy Plott is just that.
