Thanks, guys. Fantastic weekend. More details to come. My head is still spinning.

Another interesting note is that my truck, fastest of 15.82 @ 84 on Sat, was the SLOWEST Slant car at the race, and my '64 Dart (14s) was the 3rd slowest. Must have been one of the fastest average ET races ever (probably high 12s) .

Lou

If I show the IRS receipts for 20% of the parts I buy, then they won't see any net positive income there...

11 cars there, all pretty fast. Hope you can make it next year, Rick! Or, maybe a closer race (plus MD race, of course). Lots of SE people were talking about coming to Hagerstown, so it could be quite large.

Lou

Thanks, Zilla! I can hardly believe the stars aligned so that I took out both Ron P AND Ron H in one race. Would never have believed it possible.

Now, off to buy some speed parts...

Also, discussions are already underway for this year's banquet. Hopefully this will be another big wonderful event!

Lou

WOW That was GREAT Lou,
You must have REALLY been on to take them both out. ( I cut my best light .007 to Ron P's .000 at Knoxville) so to even imagine beating both of them is out of my scope.
Congrats from Frank and Cinda

Thanks, Frank.

Let's just say there was some luck involved as well as a little skill. :roll:

Doesn't matter if it was luck or skill if your win light is on. :lol:
