Dag nabbit! Sorry Andre, I thought I had the button sequence correct, on the camera. I guess I goofed up. One of these days we'll get it right.

Thanks for posting the pictures. My son and I were looking at them. Then my son told story after story to his mom, while pointing out who was who, and funny stories about who beat who,.....

I'm happy to report that my car completed it's duty. Got to the track loaded up with gear, changed all 4 tires to the race setup, raced, never missed a gear and no real problems, cruised, re-packed up and drove home no issues. Once again, 15 mpg on the highway doing 65mph. At least it wasn't pouring down rain on the way home!

Lot's of fun, for sure!

Thanks again Andre!

Congrats on the win Dennis and runner-up Gary.
Had a great time and would like to once again thank Andre and Rick Gorski for making this stick shift class happen.

What was the the et range in the stick class this year meaning fastest to slowest. Also how was the car count in comparison to last year? Unfortunately I missed the event this year.
Thanks Pete

Loboda's AMX was the quickest in the 9.70's with others in 14-15 area. There was no stick race last year, but we had 18 this year. I think pretty close to same as 2 years ago. Not bad for 1k to win when pro had 75 or something with 1500 to win.

There were 4 cars with aftermarket trans, but of the final four three had factory sticks. Pretty cool, fun class, and hopefully it grows for next year.

Also-best RT received a case of Brad Penn and Oldiron came up with a good idea of rewarding factory trans car. So Gary as r/u with the 833 also received $100, plus additional contingency from firecore.

Wow nice turnout considering there was no race last year. That's a good payout too plus the extra bonuses. I'm sure this class will grow as its sounds like a lot of fun with some great support. Hope it's here to stay for many many years. Thank you for keeping us all updated. Pete

Couple of odd things I`ve noticed every year:
None of the Vipers run in Stick,but they ALL are.
I`ve noticed a couple of Pro Bracket cars/trucks that were sticks too...
Not to mention the dozens of Trophy/Fun run manual trans stuff.
Maybe a Street and Pro-Stick format like the UMTR.
For the number of rounds it takes to win its pretty good odds
