TONY SCHUMACHER: As the 2008 Top Fuel World Champion, I'm here to tell you that winning a championship or even a qualifying run cannot be done alone. If takes a whole team of people working together and doing their part to be successful. Just like our Army Soldiers, who rely on tough rigorous training and cutting edge technology to build a strength like no other. The US Army Race Team has received top-notch training, and uses the highest level of technology to ensure that our car is the fastest one out on the track.

RON FREIDMAN: My name is Ron Freidman. I do the superchargers and ignition.

NEAL STRAUSBAUGH: Hi, I'm Neal Strausbaugh from Hillsbough, Illinois and I'm the assistant-crew chief on the US Army Top-Field Dragster.

BRAD MORRISON: When we come back and pull the left-side engine apart, take the supercharger off, the manifold, the left head. Go over it, check everything, see if anything is broke. They put it all back together with new parts, warm it up, make sure everything is ok, and then go make a run.

NEAL STRAUSBAUGH: My day-to-day responsibilities are just to make sure everybody is in check. If we have any issues, I relay all those messages back and forth. As soon as the car is rolling up to the pit area, we're already analyzing things, making sure nothing is broken, or fallen off the racecar. Visually looking at everything really well as we tear the car apart to see that we can't find what had happened on the run or just make sure that it was all perfect. We gotta have everybody in the right place at the right time, to make it all happen.

ANNOUNCER: And Tony Schumacher is now the winningest driver in the history of Top Fuel Dragsters.
