“Live” from Beech Bend Jegs Sportsnationals 2018 - Page 6

Just a quick comment. I looked at the weather and told my brother we're going to get wet and probably rained out but he said he wanted to go. So after a 12 hour pull we were there at Beach Bend Raceway what a nice place. I'm glad I listen to my brother. It didn't rain and the weather was great. The track crew had the grounds in great shape and the NHRA crew did a great job also. Thank You Kenney Kelley

Had only raced at this track once before, that was in 1972. It was a great place to race then, and even better this time. I really enjoyed the weekend, race was well run, great hospitality all around.

This freshly painted V SA Malibu is owned by my friend Ronnie Charnes. This car was raced in D 1 for years and Billy Nees knows all the cars history. I just fitted the Malibu with a new fender cover and trust me....No one let’s MJ work under the hood of their race car.....

Who said he had a trans brake? Someone slower than him in class?
That leaves out Bob Michael. Who else?
