My brothers/sisters thank you for a very informative webpage. I'm a 50 years old and a late bloomer in the drag racing game. I get very excited when J.R. Tood and any brother laying down rubber during a 1320 race. Keep up the good work and I will help spread the word about your website.

Thanks, Jasmine 02 WS6 Trans Am 450rwhp & growing

Here we go again! Why are black drivers being shutout of the pro classes. This time by our own people. Why couldn`t Duce Staley, or is it OJ Simpson, hire at least one black driver. I can see hiring Jim Yates for his experience in winning 2 championships. There are a number of black drivers out here that would do well in pro stock like Ron Weems, Nicole Lyons, Larry Nance, Harold Martin, Candyce Marsh just to name a few. This is really disheartning. If black people won`t give ourselves a chance. Who will!!

Great work!!! Everytime one of my team members visits your site we learn something new. We also are meeting and learning alot about other black drag racers. Keep up the good work, we need web-sites like this. PS: To all the female drag racers "Run 'Em Down", the men are slow.

Knowing that the 2004 Super Gas National Champion was Afro American Jonathan Womack with a well desired win. I was not surprised when a nationally published magazine showed more interest in the runner-up than the winner. Yes, we do need a "Black Dragracer" Web Site so that history is not forgotten. Keep up the "GOOD WORK"

Thanks for the site Wayne you've really shown me I am not alone. There were times I showed up to a race and guys thought, this couldn't be his car. Once I made a flawless run, I know what they said, Blacks drag race Too!!. Awesome site man keep it coming.

You're off to a great start with the website. Thanks for the pictures and comments from the Fontana Super Comp race.

I did make the trip to Texas and as luck would have it, I kick a rod in my new engine. Beside that it was a great trip and ready to do another one.

I notice that you have the Black Sunday Flyer posted on the site, is there anyone from So. Cal planning on attending. If so please let me know maybe we can hookup and travel together. I have threaten to race at this race the last couple of years after I attended as a spectator in 2002.

Hopefully in the near future I will have some news from the super category racers.

When talking about Black Drag Racers, you should also include multi-world champion and present racing team owner, Don Prudhomme. Don has been in drag racing for over 40 years and no one mentions anything about his black heritage. Is there some sort of gag order on mentioning that he is African American? I will keep bringing this up until someone says something, or he says something about it. Thanks for your time.

Can anyone tell me why we need a "Black Drag Racing" magazine? What's next a Hawaiian or Pakistani drag racing magazine? Yah I know the typical knee jerk response, will be not to include my "Opinion" and call me a racist but isn't this magazine by definition racist? Why don't we quit all the BS and try to live together like one people. I mean that's what we are, right?

It's good to see a site for black racers to talk about things and tell their accomplishments in the sport of drag racing! I had the chance to work for a NHRA Top Fuel team(tony schumacher-U.S.Army),and it really gave me a different look on blacks in pro drag racing! I also follow Fastest Street Car Racing around the country,because of my 'ole street racing ties. This site will be told to my freinds. Peace
