WORSHAM'S TEAM CONTINUES TO FIGHT THE FIGHT

Del Worsham’s Funny Car team will disband at the end of 2008 but doesn’t mean they’ve quit working. In fact, the CSK Auto worsham.JPGParts team thundered to the third qualifying position at the NHRA Fallnationals in Dallas, Tex.

"Today was about getting your race-day tune-up in shape, and we scored an A on the test, I'd say," Worsham said.  "That's pretty much exactly what we wanted to do, and the car went right down there twice.  The guys told me about our qualifying streak, how this is our 10th straight race with a single-digit spot on the ladder, and even though I knew we'd been doing a lot better in qualifying, I really didn't know that.

"We still don't have much luck on Sunday, landing some huge opponents with a lot of these top-half spots, but we can't worry about that.  All you can do is your best, and you can't guarantee that you won't get Robert Hight or John Force even if do really well, so you just deal with that.   I'm pretty proud of these guys, to tell you the truth.  It's all coming to an end soon, but they're digging in, working hard, and really being focused.  Nobody wants to win more than these guys."
