Gee, I didn't think they used a tree, .....as in 1962 :-(

I don't remember seeing you there? He did get left on only because the guy got real lucky on guessing when to leave. Rusty did really good for someone who didn't even want to go.

Tree, arm drop, whatever! I was posting on my iPhone.

Didn't see me there? I was one of the spectators!

I tell ya'll, they sure know how to make money. The spectator fee was $25.00 per person, minimum. And while the stands were not packed, they were certainly filled pretty decently. Took me awhile to get out of the parking lot.
There was 425 cars entered also.

My buddy Kelly Painter entered his street car '69 GTX. It's all stock looking except Cragar SS wheels and a six-pack hood. Has a 572 w/ Torqueflite and 3.23 gears. He was using M/T drag radials and full exhaust. Ran 11.14 and was thrown out for no roll-bar. He even drives it from AZ to his brothers deal, Mopars at the Strip in Vegas.

Didn't see you there either! I was hanging with Brian and his family. Kelly was walking around saying he was happy he went 11 teens in street trim but sad he couldn't run anymore because of no roll bar. Saw Mark M before he left. I was amazed by how fast they ran the program and the vendors/spectators. I left after the drivers meeting. Also saw Angelo and Kenny and of course Raul was working the lanes. A bunch of class guys and all we could do was root for Rusty. To bad Rusty couldn't pull it off! Also had 1 of the guys from Earnhardt's trying to make the show. A lot of fun-reminded of the fun days of racing-BBQ friends etc. Also you forgot to mention that the entry was $60 per car for a chance to win $10K. Just proves what idiots we really are!
