Yeah, Thanks for sharing the photos. That was fun. I got to show my wife photos of all the crazies that were out that weekend. Now she can see I'm not the only one. Well she knew Lou already.

I am working on editing a video of the saturday race, once its finished I will post, or put a link to it. I should have all of the elimination rounds, and even some of the time trial runs. I think dad has some videos of sunday we will get on there too.

I do have a video from my Camera (actually pretty good quality) and I tried to send it to you Ryan, but the file is too large. SInce I am laying in on the couch with my leg propped up (surgery) I can't bring it over. Stop by the house and pick it up and I'm sure you can post it for all to see.

Boy I had a great time! I hope that the Covalt clan can have 4 cars there next year and at least 20 cars in the field! I know it can be done and I think we should plan on it!

Get well fast Rick. You have my permission to take it easy for awhile.

PS. Did anyone take time to send Mason Dixon a thank you e-mail? Just 1 or 2 would be nice. Thanks.

Yeah Greg, I didn't see several cars there. I'm not sure how they did them. These would have been from the Sunday race and I'm not sure if they took any different ones on Saturday. It looks like maybe they leave them posted for a month and then take them down. Luckily I got you a good one of Ruster!

Maybe the guy's shutter speed was not quick enough to catch the lightenig quick reaction time of a slanter. ACtually I looked through all the photos and saw only a few slants in there. I wonder what was up with that? I saw Lou's project V in there I think.

If anybody got a decent photo of my car at the starting gate, I would actually pay for a copy of it. I think B&B missed a chance there.

Sam,

I think B&B had about 20 pictures on there of our group. As I said, these photos were listed as "August" photos. Since Saturday was July 31st, I would contact them by e-mail and ask if the still have the July Photos and maybe you would luck out and He'd have a good picture off the line.

That was one of the downfalls to racing myself. I could not take all the pictures I would have liked to of the first rounds because I was racing. If anyone has a photo of Sam's car at the starting line please let him know.

Also, for whatever reason I had 2 photo's show up on my digital camera totally blank. Actually white. I think they may have been of Wayne Swanson with his car and Tom Kegeris with his. I tried to get pics of people when they got there and I don't have one of Wayne or Tom. So if you took one of Wayne or Tom I would appreciate it if you could send me a copy. They were Rookies and I should have gotten their pictures. Tom's car was the nice cream color Dart and Wayne's was the green 63 Valiant.

Thanks for any help,

Rick
