NITROGEEZERS > Herman "the Northwest Terror" Pedersen had Mike Kuhl (behind engine) fly in from L.A. to over-see his 392 for the '05 NHRA CARQUEST Northwest Nationals at Pacific Raceways, Wa. How long will it take for the competition to heat up between Herm and the B.Austin/J. Ruth team for the "Highest, Brightest Flames Award"? Russ Griffith dragfoto
NITROGEEZERS > The crowd loved it! Jerry Ruth, on right, and Herm Petersen, side by side at the '05 NHRA CARQUEST Northwest Nationals at Pacific Raceways, Wa. Russ Griffith dragfoto
NITROGEEZERS > Leave it to these guys to turn a "Cackle" into some kind of one-up-manship! Herman got his mask off and complained that "the King" cut him off and nearly ran over him. When Jerry got his mask off, the first thing he said was, "I won, huh?" Pacific Raceways hosted the '05 NHRA CARQUEST Northwest Nationals near Kent, Washington. Russ Griffith dragfoto
NITROGEEZERS > Jerry "the King" Ruth exits the Bucky Austin re-creation of Jerry's last front-motored Top Fueler at Pacific Raceways, Wa. at the '05 NHRA CARQUEST Northwest Nationals just before the running of the Final Round. I'm not sure , but I thought "the King" had tears in his eyes. Wouldn't be suprised, as I was with Herman when he got his first ride in 26 years at last years California Hot Rod Reunion in "the Greek's" car and he was pretty emotional when he got out.

NITROGEEZERS > Herman and Jerry shook hands and even hugged after the "Cackle", the photogs were scrambling for a shot as the old Top fuel warriors really enjoyed the time. Pacific Raceways, Wa. was the place. Russ Griffith dragfoto
