And a Drag Racer is Born

Bill tells him that he checked with the track and that jon meets the requirements as there are classes for younger kids that jon competed in all the time he grew up. The rest of the ride is a nighmare for jon. As sooon as his father told him he could drive, the whole worlu turned to slow motion. The lines on the road seemed to be a mile long. .
             As they pulled into the pits jon once again asked if everything would be fiem and bill assured him that it would be. Bill pulled into his normal place in the pits so that he could be the closest to the stating line his theory was that if he could launce with the engine cool he could make the best run and so far he had been right. Jon got out and unlocked the trailer and began to undo the chains on the car when bill came over and said we got here early so I could show you haow to do everything by yourself "Your going to become a driver tonight- bill said. Jon needed no help unchaining and starting the car for his father this had become his job when he was only 8 while his fater would go to tech and qualify himself for the race. This time bill told jon that he would guide while jon backed the car down the trailer. Jon nervously got into the car over the rollbar and into the fiberglass racing seat. Quickly he remembered that he had not turned on the safety switch located on the trunk of the car so he got back out and turned the pointed switch to on and reentered the car. As sat down he went over everything in his head just like everytime before. Turn on the master power switch then the fuel pump after that the cooling fan and then power the coil and then the finallaey turn the key and listen to 650 horsepower come to life inside the now deafening trailer. This is the part that jon liked best he could hear every cylinder come to life inside the moter, the loping sound was music to his ears, he eased on the gas and let the motor come to high idle.
