My son just won the 2012 422 Allstars NSS Championship! - 11/11/12 07:41 AM

It's been a tough year, but we held on at the end. Qualified #1 at the last race, had a career best ET today (9.86), but went out early, so the door was open for someone to overtake us, but luck was on our side. Championship comes with a nice ca$h bonus. We couldn't have done it without the help from our friends and Moparts members:

Kevin - for doing an outstanding job driving this year.
Tom Sneden - For letting us run with his name on the door and calling us on Thanksgiving a few years ago to go and look at this car.
Dave Reitz - for his wisdom and tuning advice.
Bob Banning - for his support.
Bob George - for building the winning shortblock, intake & carbs in the car.
Lucky's Racecars - For the excellent chassis work last winter.
Jay Zolko - at Ray Barton Racing engines for cam & valvetrain help.
Sheldon - at T&D for getting us replacement rockers in record time.
John Cope - for sending much needed trans parts last week.

Thanks to everyone! Hope to repeat in 2013.
Congrats to AJ too for winning the PS championship!

Please do. Love to meet ya. Dave Reitz said that you knew him, but he can't recall from where/when, so since he finished 3rd in points, he should be at all nine races next year.

0.002 in qualifying. 2.45 first gear (vs. the 2.77) seemed to tame the car down in regards to tire shake. ET's didn't suffer.

Dave Collette up to his Hi-jinx. When you are #1 in points, everyone is taking a shot at you

Terrific job, Kev!!! With Dave Reitz and Cliff nipping at your heels...a lot of pressure. Fantastic.

422 is the best run, most even NSS series around, none of the others are even close. To win a season series in that environment is tough, indeed!!

Great job!!

We can, but we will leave the present number on the car. He already has a target on his back; don't need one on the car too.

Thanks to everyone for the kind replies. We busted our butts this year. Hope to let the driver do his job next year and not have to worry about the car.

So tell him to have them stay in NASCAR after this year.
I'm cautiously optomistic that Brad Keslowski will win the championship in the Charger.
