Dale Pulde has found a niche in nostalgia fuel racing, but deserves to be back on the NHRA tour.

Dale Pulde returned to the driver's seat during the 2001 March Meet, shoeing the John Eirich owned "Ground Zero" AA/FD entry. Pulde qualified ninth with a 6.25, and posted a best of 6.162/237.65 in round one, while defeating low qualifier Bill Dunlap. Dale was ousted in the second round of eliminations when he was defeated by Mike McLennan's 6.42.

PS - The first batch of photos from last weekend's Goodguys event are now posted at the Combustion Chamber.
