Default Re: 10 years ago today--U.S. Class Nationals

Thanks for starting this thread ,Mike. I meant to get one going. I didn't realize the date was upon us already.
Hot it was alright. Not just the numbers like here , but the humidity was sky-high over there in corn country. I remember starting my generator in the m/h when I was about an hour away because the dash air and refrigerator couldn't keep up . I never shut it off the whole time we were there. I never do that normally. You couldn't even sit outside in the shade.
Non stop time trials, seven ladder sheets for Stock, cars called for first round by ladder sheet 1, 2, etc, flat out racing, Top Stock, Nostalgia Super Stockers, free party at the clubhouse, Tequila shots with _____, ( I'll leave out the names) Great time and memories.
It truly was the Woodstock of S/SS racing.
I doubt it will ever happen again, to that magnitude.
I tried to get a West Coast version started out here the week before the Phx Nat's in October... I didn't get one reply on here ???
