PBIR - Citrus pit report

Gary Smith · 11-28-2008, 11:30 PM

Arrived at 12:30 pitted in the dirt patch by the racers entrance. Teched in for tomorrow then put the car away. Car count is rather low but it's still early. Present so far in SS: Wendell Howes, Denny Steward, Dave Thomas. Spent most of the afternoon getting in everyone's way & drinking David Lindsay's beer

Doug Patrick is pitted near me (Doug, I moved from the dirt tonight, hopefully not in your way). As I headed to my truck I spotted Sid Tolson making his way in, then saw Joe Teuton & Kevin Helms rig getting situated. Kevin says Scott & Darin Summerton are on their way. George Case informs me Bucky Hess may be heading down. SS/AH could be very interesting this weekend. Dave Thomas makes 2 passes and is impressed with the surface. Joe Mialki makes 2 passes, spitting a valve on the last run. Denny Steward starts thrashing while Joe goes home to pick up another motor..looks like an all nighter for them.

Sure wished my stocker was ready.. S/SS first run tomorrow not until 1:00 Off to bed..early start tomorrow at 8:00 am (I hate mornings) first time run at 9:00..I don't wake up until 10:00 on Saturdays, will be interesting making a pass only half awake

Thanks Gary for the report, keep us informed on the racing news if you can. The weather-man is calling for a little snow this weekend in parts of Ky, hope you all have good weather for the weekend. J.Gower stock 3058

Hey Gary

Thanks for the report, now let me tell ya about the ones ya mentioned, Dave Thomas, make sure he has Ice Cream, he does not sell Hamburgers either,wrong guy, Wendell Howes, if ya think he is drinking a glass of Coke Cola, wrong, it's dark rum or wine LOL, Denny Steward has lots of beer with him, he will share it with ya, watch that car, he will go to the top of the pole, Poor Joe, sorry to hear about the valve, but when he comes back ,go and look and make sure it has spark plug holes in the valve covers, check and see it is not a BBC, or he might have another CA car with him,Blue with white striped Camaro, he stole it LOL and he has lots of Beer also, Anyway thanks for the update, if ya can post a Qualifing sheet would be great, will be there next yr. Thanks Brian Oakes

Jimmy, long time no speak!!! Sure wish you & Donnie Beeler could make down some day. Hope to make it back to Bowling Green soon.

Brian, Wendell is keeping Denny honest. And no, Howes isn't drinking from a coke cup, but kept boasting about the best beer north of the border "Moosehead". He didn't bring any and Denny definitely is supplying beer. I'll hit Dave up for some ice cream. The last thing I asked Joe was to bring some pizza back. Too bad it'll be cold by the time I return LOL!!!

Anyway a real fun time.
