I consider Tony Bischoff a friend, even though I have only talked to him for a few hours each time we met. So I will post this link. It appears that Tony did have a very fast car at one time (until he had two crashes and was a very good driver. I did actually see his cougar in person before he retired it.

"His 2007 NMRA Pro 5.0 Championship proved his engine tuning and driving skills. In 2009, Bischoff embarked on a limited ADRL Extreme Ten Five campaign, with limited success. He wrecked the car at Martin, Michigan and again at Madison, Illinois, and has since announced his retirement from driving."
So apparently besides building Engine Masters championship engines (of many makes), he was a very good driver at one point.
You seem to imply, Bill, that Tony had never been in a Race Car, much less was a Champion Driver.
Why don't you make a correction to that post.

This post is not about drag racing. It is about a lack of knowledge about a person in a post which needs to be corrected.
