The new Hemi was running 9.50's all day sporting a original Mag. crossram! If someone can post the pic., please do. I love seeing these Legends show up and kicking butt! http://imagesbydonjew.smugmug.com/Virgin...897_oEqbg-XL-LB

Congratulations Darrell, that was a lot of rounds due to the large turnout and the Arrow ended up on top of it all.

At this show I spent alot of time with Ed Hedrick (age 73) who was Don Yenko's #1 man running SS/E in 69' which is the most sought after Yenko car to date that can't be found. He also ran Bill Stiles 70' Pro-Stock Duster. Ed currently races a early 70' Nova with a BB (mid 10s) and is a hoot to hang out with like EM! I have fun with them bracket racing win or loose! Fred, great pic of the 65'!! I was so glad Fezel brought it to Henderson this past year!!

Eugene Coarde on parked one side of my Hemi Cuda, and Ed Miller on the other side. Ed's wife was even giving out my phone number off my car to people who wanted fiberglass parts. I even met the notorious "Hemi Fred". Great time with good people.
