Welllllllllllllllllllllllllllll................... .........


Yup, took home ALL the marbles. Payout was very nice due to the big car count(we had 74 stick cars running between the two classes). It was a VERY, VERY late night as with Motz and the fireworks our second round wasn't til 11pm. Final was 2:30am, I got home at 4:30am Saturday.

Motz did a nice job making two passes and making alot of noise and smoke. Fireworks were very nice(as always). Had a nice day, though it didn't look great when we got there at 10:30am as it rained off/on all the way there.

We're off to Milan, Michigan on July 18th for next race. I've won 2 of 4, and in the points lead. With 4 races to go and the final one a double points, it can go in any direction. We'll try to keep the mojo flow'n.

Hi Larry that is great i wish Norwalk still did the show. its closer for me to go. The Fords at the summit is the July 24-25-26 already as it always happens the 25 have a family gathering (wifes side) so i'll have to do 24 or 26.Hows the 24 Friday at these events better to go fri or sunday in your opinion?

I'd pick Sunday, as Friday might be kinda slim? Sunday should be the usual run off of all the classes, so best to see. I'll be there Friday morning at gate opening like I've done in the past(sometimes I go up Thurs and get in Linders Lot).
