THE ROAD TO FIVE WITH MENDY FRY

"On Saturday, October 2nd in Bakersfield, Mendy Fry stared down destiny, making history as the first driver of the fairer sex to turn a 5 second clocking in a nitro-burning AA/Fuel Dragster, recording a time of 5.87 seconds... on the same trip down the drag strip, she earned passage into the exclusive AA/Fuel Dragster '250 Mile Per Hour Club' as its 6th member, masterfully tripping the top end timers at a jaw-dropping speed of 251 mph... all of this after a mere handful of passes in a AA/Fueler -- but a lifetime of desire..." -- CC.
