i thought he was with Rado full time?

Speaking about sport compact people... big ups to James Lin working at the big show now too!!! (dunno if there was already a thread about that)

 

IHRA aswell eh... maybe we will see Ms Kubo out here in Canada in Sept.

 

has she gotten licensed yet? any seat time in a rwd drag car? g/l

 

What exact roll is Lisa Kubo playing in this?
I agree on your James Lin comment. That is huge for him.

 

Lisa is doing the carbon Body repairs, sometimes I believe she might do some fuel mixing, but that is usually up to the driver so they have no one else to blame if it doesn't pass tech. She generally just does what ever is needed. She is learning tons on what it takes to run a fuel car, that is for sure.

Earl, Lisa messaged me and gave me a list of other things she does, and wanted me to let you know. Packs the Chutes, Drive Chase Truck, Mix Fuel, Manage the Merchandise trailer, and at the track lines the car up. When at the shop, she also works on the bottom end.
