The concrete starting pad is almost a little too smooth and the tires want to spin in the middle of the run. We'll have to make adjustments for that. The arrival of a new engine dynamometer at the Johnson family's top secret headquarters in Sugar Hill, Ga., heralds a change in Johnson's between-races routine.

Some flat black paint will fix that. I've got kids to feed, so motivation is not a problem. The crew is doing a great job, and that helps to keep morale up. A victory celebration at Atlanta Dragway with friends and family would also sustain the ACDelco team's spirits through the long weeks on the road.
