Steve that so cool of you to do that for Melissa.
If she doesn't want to go you could send me.  I wonder if Alex would let me to go the MONEYMAKER school of drag and street racing.  SCOOP ------------------

Hey Steve,
Haven't attended, but they have a good reputation, so we checked into it for my daughter Ashley. Have the brochures and they cover everything you could want, so who knows, maybe one of these days.------------------

Duane,That's cool, do you know what the tuition is? There's only so much I can teach Melissa, I figure Frank can take her to the next level without years of OTJ experience that most of her conpetition has. SteveW [This message has been edited by steve'66 (edited 12-14-2002).]

Alcohol course (funny car or dragster) is $4995 & is also 2 days.
Dragster adventure is $398 for the full day or $139 for half day. The full day includes morning instruction 3 burn outs and 1/8 mile runs, plus 2 more burn outs and 2 1/4 mile runs.
Hope this helps!!!!BTW, you can go on-line at www.frankhawley.com and request the entire brochure and pricing packet
