Mr Matyas,

Why are you attending "tech meetings" at the banquet? Are you working for NHRA now?

Mr.Johnson - I thought everyone knew what my background is and was .................Yeah , I know - spoken like a true used car guy .

Vic - Sure would like that red car but my wallet says different .

Did you know ?? This is the 45th annual Division One Banquet and Tech Seminar - even I wasn't aware they were going on that long .

After a great early morning breakfast it was off to meetings and seminars - the main one attended by more than a hundred Certification Team members and Tech people from many of the Division One member tracks .

Used car dealers don't use vasoline anymore. Soft lighting and in house financing create a higher grosos and a smiling customer

The banquet is behind us - ate some very good food considering its made for hundreds - the champions have been crowned and the hardware handed out - congrats to Joe Santangelo (Stock) and brothers Peter ( S/Gas ) and Sal Biondo ( Comp) along with James Antonette ( S/S ) all that is left is the music / dancing and consuming adult beverages while remembering the events of last season - both good and bad .

Last but not least we'll talk about Marylands' favorite son - Bobby Bender - the 2011 NHRA Division One "Person of the Year"............well deserved for sure .
