In the round of 4 cars last Saturday night I get to run the defending points champion that was currently on a 20 Round winning streek. He has won the first two points races. It was 2:30 a.m. and lets just say my blood was flowing at an alarming rate. To make a long storey short he was .009 & dead on with "0" I was .001 & dead on with a "6"
His .009 package to my .007 package. That was the greastest race ever for me. The line of people along the pit roads giving me the thumbs was awsome. This is why I started racing and will never give it up.
I am still on a high from that night!!!

Win or lose the close ones always put a smile on my face. Congrats on being on the win side.


If the MODS did their job I would not be hitting the notify MOD button. LOL

Yeah it was Vic. But heck it was an all Mopar Final, kinda. (Volvo with a 440)
Vic was a true sportsman. I started racing him when we were both racing High School on Weds. nights. Both Vic & his father are outstanding people.

Congratulations on the big WIN !

You earned that one, and against tough competition that had a good run also.

Last week my buddy lost two rounds (1st, reentry) by less than 0.001. Both were 0.000x ! Just not his day...

I see Brian C won again last Sat. 3 out of 4 points races.
I was not there to spoil his fun last weekend. LOL Had to work plus the better half wanted to to put some miles on the Harley.
