Yep, great lights...Congrats to Katie

Should be noted, Joe Santangelo ,without the heads up in rd. 5 , > .013 average.<
He's driven the car ,what, twice now? ..... after skipping the first time trial.
Think about THAT the next time you spend $170 + with NHRA for a cookout and a few practice runs...

OK Jim, don't look it up, what is the definition of "penumbra"

I will buy you dinner at a race if you know the answer without looking it up.

Dave - You must be hanging out with the wrong crowd ........."penumbra" ?? I'm having trouble finding it in the dictionary ......................

The track personell were friendly and the starting line crew really worked at keeping the hook there., and it was consistant.......150 deg track temp and I was hooked up every time!!
I did'nt mind the lenght of the trip as much as the condition of the roads, I dont know what Mass and Conn. do with the fuel taxes,but they dont appear to spend it on the highways!

Amen to that brother!!!

Todd, I was running my Super Gas 58 Vette.

I found your 'Vette on Auto Imagery.
I was in the lanes Saturday for the first round of SS with my friend Mark Howes and his black SS/JA '71 Duster. You pulled up in the lane next to us and I commented to Mark how cool it was the way you have climb out of the car with the peg sticking out of the rocker panel area -- If I'd have only known !!!!

Well I'm no reporter but, a local racer brought this picture by Fri. from Epping and thought it was the biggest news of the day ! Thats right none less than our beloved reporter doing manual labor .... I wonder if Ken knows he wasn't doing his slacking of his reporting duties ?

Well here's the real news - I worked so hard at New England there's rumors of me getting a bonus ..........Trouble is that Ken is being mum on the rumors . And yes , I did some manual labor there . Tell me again what position you qualified ...............

Dave...your money is safe. I had to look it up!

Now, I have to figure out a way to include "penumbra" in future coverage.

Reminds me of my day job. A former coworker and I used to challenge each other to work specific words into advertising we were writing. I challenged him to work the word "protozoa" into a radio commercial for a strip club. He wrote "Our dancers do more splits than a protozoa."
