Well they did it -- I'm not sure how but we were done by 7pm on a Saturday night of a large National event--Well done NHRA -- Got thru 4 rounds of S/S this afternoon and night along with some Stock and SuperGas not to mention Alcohol classes and throw in some SuperComp .Maybe it was because the Pro's cooperated or the Sun and Moon were aligned or who knows what but it worked .Round five in most classes tomorow means great racing and the track has really come around --S/S guys were saying it has real teeth .

PS-- Debbie and I were going to leave early Sunday morning but the NHRA changed our travel plans - an official came around late this afternoon and informed us that we should be at the rear of staging tomorow morning at 9:45 am to receive our "Best Appearing Car " award and take pictures in the circle .To say we're thrilled is an understatement .I'm old school -- "if it don't go chrome it"- but this one goes too .Thanks to those who voted for us ..till tomorow - I'll be the one on cloud # 9 .................

Thanks for all the kind words guys -- sorry we had to leave the race early but I made a commitment that if I was out of the Keystones we would go to Mountain View Speedway in Wind Gap , PA where I cut my racing teeth for a racer reunion this afternoon .Sure am glad I went -- saw a lot of folks that its been a very long time since we spoke .What a life -- Maple Grove spotlite in the morning and MT.View in the afternoon - two tracks in the same day just like the "old days"...............hope I don't wake up tomorow morning and its all a dream......................memories -- its all about the memories .

Congrats to all the winners this afternoon............

PS-- One last thing- none of this would be happening without people I should mention -- Thanks to my partner Bill Myers who is behind the scene while I get the kudos and Ryan Korek of Korek Design who sprayed some awesome paint work on our GTO and I can't forget Tommy Goldman who helped put this jigsaw puzzle together .
