We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves this weekend. We saw a lot of old friends and met many more. The event ran very smooth with only a few minor delays. The staff at QCMP did a great job. The track was hooking hard, the 65 was back to hanging the fronts high on every pass and the 60' only varied .012 in 26 passes on the weekend. The car was on a string but couldn't put a big W up. Two runners-up in the hemi class and made it to 6 cars in pro on Sunday before bowing out with -.002 red light.

I want to say a special thanks to the sponsors and to Bob for giving me and my dad the opportunity to drive his cars.

The event will continue to grow. All of the payouts on the flyer were paid out in full for both days.

Congrats to all the winners this past weekend.

We are already working on plans for next years race to make it even better.

Lastly I just have to say big wheelies are fun!!!

It sure was a good race, had a really good time. Thanks to BG Racing for putting it on, seems wherever BG is involved good things usually happen. First time for me at the Quaker track, it's a nice track, pit is excellent, track good and smooth, burnout box deal was odd the first time, but really works fine. Never knew Curt, heard about him quite a bit, I'd say that apple didnt fall far from the tree. I'll be going back.

I had plan'ed on going. I wanted to go.. But Friday night I look at the slicks and they was gone.could not get a set that quick. Hopefully next year we will know the dates on this race early. so I can get time off to go all 3 days. I did go out to the local track and watch I wore my Bob George T-shirt.

What more can be said,it was a great but emotional weekend for our family and the Davis family.That everyone shared their feelings for Curt and Jean and the wonderful support they provided only goes to furthur bond the solid relationship between the racers and people who attended.Some of the comments that were shared brought tears to many with the heartfelt sincerity of actions like the dedicating of Hemi Class win to Jean Davis and Doug (dvw)remembering Curt and feeling Curt's presence with him on every pass.
We are honored and humbled to be surrounded with so many great people and feel they are all part of the family and again we want to express our respect and appreciation to everyone.We also want to thank Norm Fox and his entire crew for a great track and their hospitality for the weekend.
Respectfully Bob George and the entire BGR crew.

This was our first trip to Quaker City and I was very impressed with the track. It has to be one of nicest and cleanest tracks I've seen. They have electric plugins all over so you don't have to listen to 100 generators wailing away & Donuts and Coffee every morning is a big plus too.

Sorry I didn't make it out Bob, really wanted to and needed a race weekend. However I had a project going on here and a family commitment that negated any fun time.

All I can say is it sounded like a success and I'll try my best again to make it next year
Hope it's at Quaker again

Anyone aware of pictures from the weekend?? Would like to see some from the event.


There was a photog on the starting line but don't know if he was a hired photographer or private individual, I took a few when I had the chance but was short on time most of the weekend, I will post later this week.




Try going here Quaker City has about 300 pictures on their facebook page.

I got a call from "Squeek" a few minutes ago. He said they had a ball at this race and wining "Hemi" on Sunday was frosting on the cake. BTW, he said they dedicated the win to Jean Davis!




Frito,
Thank you for posting this. We can't thank them enough for dedicating their win to mom.

Well it must be a trend,we see many class racers showing up at bracket races.I still think that class racing is getting too costly for the adverage racer.We welcome them at any event.For a "common bracket racer to have a chance to spank a accomplished class racer is like icing on the cake.

Casey-Whompin Wedge........I wonder why it was your favorite weekend of the year?

Maybe because you went what 9-1 on the weekend?

Great job.

Are you coming to Magnolia on September 8th for the Buckeye race?

Haha yea Jeff that definitely helps, but it is just a fun race. Lots of racing, great people, and free donuts and coffee every morning!

Thanks again for the effort that was put into this race bgr!

Magnolia will be a no go for us, the heads are off the car getting redone.

Hoping for Norwalk!

Casey
