Hey guys, I figure that I would post some pics of the Trailer Demo Race that dad was in a couple months ago. The pickup was a 1970 1 ton 360 built to a 390 which later found out that is only had 30 miles on the motor. the races where held at the Hermiston race track on July 28th this year. There was only three racers that turned out but it was still a blast. Dad took first place with the old Ford. Don and his son Harley did a lot of work to this thing too. We are hoping that next year there will be a few more(Hint, Hint Anybody?).

When we first got it stacks were just for looks at that point

After paint.

Ready for the race.


We also have a video of the race that I'm going to post soon, I will also take pics of the aftermath.

 

Way cool Jared! Harley and I had a blast at the race! We'll be entering our own truck in next years race, so you better be ready.................lol

 

Awesome, Dad Is going to give me that 68 behind the barn for next year. That was the one he wanted to use but the tranny was starting to go bad. He forgot he had 4 C-6's hidden away.

 

Morning Jared! I think I'm gonna use a chebby. Why would I want to screw up a good Ford..................hehehe...

Did your dad take off to the gold mine this week?

 

What did the truck look like after the race?

 

Not much different than when it started. Can't say that about the others tho..............lol

There was soooo much tire smoke you could barely see the trucks at the end!

 

Yep, he is down there now I haven't heard any news or about them on The news.

 

Some pics of the Aftermath.


No pic's of the trailer because it disintegrated. lol.
Video soon to come!

 

So, wheres the video???????????????

 

Well, its about that time of the year again, for the bump 2 pass trailer and boat races. There wasn't much damage after last years race, so we just pulled the fender out away from the tire, touched up the paint and installed a better seat. Now the trailer is a different story, we decide to start over and well... Its a Beauty!!! The trailer sat in the mountains for close to three years and Mr. Squirrel decided it was now his home.

 

Since you guys like videos so much, i decided to post this one of me racing up at Lind, Wa. in a Australian pursuit race.

 

Wow Jared! That looks like fun! Let me know when your going to race in Hermiston so I can come and watch!

 

Well tomorrow is the day. We have scrambled around this week to try to get the pickup looking decent again after the last race. Here are some photos after the last race.



Fixed up and ready for the race.

 

Looks good, have fun Jared.

 

Thank you.
