Josh did a great job putting this together!  Friday was tuff. Parked on Thur. came back on friday (after the rain) to find a huge motorhome parked directly in front of me 2 feet into my space. Could barely get my truck hooked up to my trailer. Swept water all day from my pit. Car ran like crap. Saturday was better. Rejetted, adjusted the tire pressure,ran a personal best 9.336 @ 142.56 1.27 60ft. .007 red in the box race, thats racing. Will come back if it's in Indy! Had a good time, worth the 800 mile tow!

For Mopar racers this will become THE BIG GO!!! Great job to all involved! 1 constructive critisism ; more port-o-lets please. This will make the panic driven walks/runs easier.  The rain wasn't your fault, so thanks for a great time. Don

Plus IMHO Indy is a more central location. There are a lot of Moparts members in OH, MI, and PA, that should like this trip better than the old location. Thanks again, Don

Joe, the NSS "gamblers" race Saturday was being run by Doug Duell. The NSS guys who were "in" were using the 2nd Saturday run as a 1st round of eliminations. Those NSS racers choosing not to run the gambler race still got their 2nd run Saturday as a time run. I show 56 NSS cars making a second run on Saturday starting at 2pm, 44 were in the gambler.

I was there Saturday as a spectator only (racing is on hold for a while), and I have to say you and everyone else, including the St. Louis MMW guys who probably don't get enough credit, did a superb job! I was hoping to meet you and thank you in person while walking through the pits during that loooong cleanup Sat. evening. I stopped and talked to your dad for a minute and he pointed me in your direction. I found you but you looked kinda busy talking to Bondo, so maybe I can thank you in person next year, and with a little luck I'll be there racing. Good to hear it will be back.
