JIM HEAD: RAY CHARLES IS MY CO-PILOT
Sat, 2010-08-14 22:00
Jim Head ran during Saturday's qualifying at the NHRA Lucas Oil Nationals in Brainerd, Minn., with a 
new paint scheme from veteran graphics/paint man Chucky B. The paint scheme also included the likeness of the late singer Ray Charles.
Head admitted the addition was to fan the flames from the war of words with Pro Stock driver Warren Johnson. A frustrated Warren Johnson exclaimed on ESPN that a nitro car was so simple to drive that "Ray Charles could drive one in his current state."
A smiling Jim Head offered, "Ray Charles tells me which way to turn the wheel. He tells me how to drive. I'm thinking I could close my eyes and he'd steer me straight to the finish line."
