$7K S/SS + Doorslammer race

[Michael Beard]

>> Had 2 more rounds to go against a couple of box cars. It's always fun lining up against a box car............as long as it's late and you already made good money. lol

Only 1 *more* round. Remember, you were .007 against one when the rear broke (for good). The winner was .032 on the tree in the finals... quite honestly, your average was probably among the top three guys at the track for the whole weekend. Most of the box guys were junk on the tree this weekend. It was bizarre, but you showed them how to do it. I should've had YOUR car checked! ;-) LOL You were driving like you've told me you could drive, in all them stories you've told me. I was impressed.

We had a total of 32 cars in the entire Ultimate Doorslammer race, and only FIVE S/SS cars... four made the call for first round, as I understand Jim Morgan hurt his transmission. For an off weekend, and payouts better than an IHRA National Event, I was disappointed with the turnout. If you guys want good paying S/SS events, then you need to speak up and let promoters know what you want!

A big thank you to Mike Mayhew, Jim Morgan, Bruce Campbell, Jack & David Zimmerman, and Tony Brown for representing the S/SS contingent.
