Vic, I wish you would have said Hello, would have liked to have met you.

Maybe next round yes?




I'm still working on my social skills. I was at the starting line with the
Marine Corp haircut, looking like I'm pissed off at the world. Next
round for sure.



The way the sun glared off of the windshields in some of the pictures,
ruined several of them. Utility vehicle for track personnel prevented
good shots from the left lane.

Keith.....I'm cleaning it out now.

It was great to meet up with all my FAST racing buddy's again, and get the GTX back on the track. Congrats to Dave on maintaning his reign, and to Lane for almost taking him down! Thanks to ED and Scotty and Bruno and all those who kept us fed, Ed your new Maxie is awesome, give it more track time and it will be right where you want it. Me and my son Cam got there thurse afternoon, crusing around the pits thurse night I toasted something in the valvtrain, thought maybe I wiped a cam lobe. #6 intake lash opened up to .090. I didn't have the parts or the ambition to fix it (after the 3 day thrash to be ready to go and the long drive) so I decided to be a spectator. Friday Tom Cannon (Big Shooter) and Steve Vanderwall got me all motivated to give it a shot. Paul Petco found me a set of roller lifters an hour away, Tom lent me his truck, I got the parts, put them in, got the car back on the track by friday eve for acouple test passes. The guys let me count my fri night pass for qualifying, even though qualifying was closed. Qualified 8th with an 11.74. Didn't have time for any real testing or dialing anything in, just tried to get used to driving the car again. Lost to Dave in the 1st round on saterday, went into the consolation ladder and won that. One of the highlights for me was racing James Cooks 4 speed Road Runner! The Old fart vs. the Kid in and all 4 speed match. James is awesome with a stickshift, and was hoping for an upset. He ran a great race.
I was really hoping to back up my 10.92 pass, but the air was hot, the hook was iffy, my 02 meter was broke, and I just plain didn't work hard enuff at it. Best was an 11.03 at 128. Thanks to every one who helped me wrench on the car!

Had a great time on the way home, took the long way thru the Upper Peninsula and did lots of sightseeing.

My boy shot some video, but sorry, he ony shot the rounds with my car.
The next event for me is the Mopar Nats in Columbus. See you there!
Joel

Final




Not quite.... The way the ladder worked out, Dave and Lane Carey were fighting it out in the Semi's.

Dave winning the semi's went up against Adrian Beltrame in his '69 Ram Air II Firebird. Adrian was the giant killer this day as he tree'd both of his prior competitors and made his way to the finals against the BlackBird of DOOM!!!!!

Again, a weekend of fun, friends and racing that ended way too soon!!!!

Shows how much I was keeping track.

I know they were running eliminations for different classes back to back.

Good show. I was impressed with how those cars were hooking on those tires.
