Racers being rude to racers, no , I will start a new thread, this thread is about fun, people and racing

Re: "Live" from our sea to shining sea tour 2015
 

Well in super stock, Kevin and Joe had to run each other first round. Joe came out the winner in a very close .001 race. So now we get to cheer Joe and Jim on! It has been cold and windy here today. It is supposed to be sunny and 68 tomorrow. And hopefully not as windy!


We went to the Peppermill for dinner tonight and are we ever stuffed. Alice has pictures that she will post later.


More later!

Okay, did you notice that the first shot only showed salads and drinks? Well, we decided to only show you next our desserts!!!!! Are you believing these? And, I could make you think that Patsy and Kevin ordered these for themselves...but that would not be nice....If it makes anyone feel better....SIX OF US SHARED these.. So, UNVELIEVABLE..

Okay, remember the Saturn that Larry was going to race? Well tonight as Joe and I are riding in the back seat of this "Stocker/Saturn " this was the only picture I could acquire due to the speeds it will reach and sustain...

Re: "Live" from our sea to shining sea tour 2015
 

Congratulations to Tom Nolan, winner in super stock over Jody Lang~


Also congrats to Darrel Goheen, winner in stock over Joe Santangelo!


It has been an exciting day here at the track! And now we are headed out to Pomona in the morning where the National Championships in Stock and Super Stock will be decided!!

Well, after Joe lost in the second round this morning, we had the very best surprise.. walking up into our pit was this cute couple..Allen and Marilyn Wade . They just happened to be in the area... and stopped by.. Had a great visit.. Thanks, folks, for stopping by..

We went over to the round track today to check it out..A few cars were "experiencing" the experience.. They had a beautiful day..

Re: "Live" from our sea to shining sea tour 2015
 

Folks, I called Bobby Warren this afternoon. He is out of ICU, but in a regular room now . I was just so happy when he answered. He is VERY tired of being in the hospital and was glad to hear what was going on here in Vegas. The last time we were here (2010) Bobby was with us.. Good times.. Wish he was with us now..Keep the prayers going for Bobby and his recovery. Alice

Re: "Live" from our sea to shining sea tour 2015
 

Alice thanks for the info on Bobby. He is in our prayers. Joe should not have had a problem cooking . He had a great mentor.

Re: "Live" from our sea to shining sea tour 2015
 

Even though we aren't racing anymore, I've been following your trek across the country which is one we never got to with the race car. Your photos and messages are great. The coffee pot problem and generator problems made me think of a solution many of you might want to carry along. We've always had a stove top percolator along in case we needed a substitute which we had to use several times on our road trip to Alaska from Tampa when we were in parks that didn't want you to start generators until 7 or 8AM or at all. Then I found Camping World carries a 12volt coffee maker for $30 with a 7 ft cord. Haven't used it yet, but it's tucked away in the RV just in case. Those darn generators decide to quit just when you need them as you know.

Don't mean to mess up your racing thread, and the administrator may pull this, but I thought it was appropriate seeing as how some of your group had generator and coffee maker problems.

Re: "Live" from our sea to shining sea tour 2015
 

Sue,

I would sure like to hear about that trip to Alaska. I will stop by your pit next time I see you at the races.

Re: "Live" from our sea to shining sea tour 2015
 

Thanks Larry

Re: "Live" from our sea to shining sea tour 2015
 

We're here! We're here! Actually, we have been here since 2 or so this afternoon. We left Vegas about 6:20 and after heavy traffic thru town, had a nice drive here. We stopped at Peggy Sue's for breakfast or lunch, whichever you wanted, and then drove on in. It was an uneventful trip, which was good! This afternoon we spent time catching up with our good friends, Mike and Paula Cotten. Then went to House of Wings for dinner. Now we are back at the track and going to try to get caught up on a little sleep since we left so early this morning.


I took a few pics that I will post a little later.

Re: "Live" from our sea to shining sea tour 2015
 

It is a bright sunny day here in Pomona although a little cool. It is 55 now going up to 65 later in the day. It is supposed to warm up the rest of the week into the 70s and sunny all week.


It is 10:10 and it looks like the parking has begun!!


More later!! We are #98 so it will be a while yet!

Yes, they are Joshua trees, from the Yucca family, and only grow in the Mohave Desert..in that little tri- state corner of the world.

Good luck, guys.
Nice to see you.

Well, here's the latest on the newly acquired coffee pot from back in Arizona. This new one has stopped working.. OMG...So today, Willie, and Joe and I truck over to the nearest Walmart with the three week old Coffee Pot in hand (in the original box, of course) and Joe takes the paid receipt to customer service for the exchange and they return to him $20 too much.. He has then left the counter and realizes the mistake and again stands in line to explain and return the overage... Said new Walmart individual thanks him for his honesty and then short changes Joe a dollar and OMG...it appears there is now going to be NO PAPER WORK accompanying this "honesty transaction." hmmmm I am very sure that there is a wonderful lesson to be learned here, but we three Southerners must keep this lesson to the conversation and laughter following when we returned to the car.. You be the judge.... But in the morning, we are genuinely hoping to have a good cup of coffee.. Good night....oh, that's right, we drove all these gazillion miles to RACE!!!!!

Re: "Live" from our sea to shining sea tour 2015
 

Well it has been a beautiful day here in southern California! Today was tech day, then we headed out to the other sea in our "sea to shining sea" tour! Larry wasn't able to go with us since he had to do a little work around the camp! But Jim Marshall drove the Saturn and we fought thru all the traffic to Newport Beach! BTW, I am so glad I don't live out here! I am sure the pretty weather is a big plus, but I would go crazy trying to drive in this awful traffic! So here are a few pics from today:
