S/SS Combo - Pageland, SC, Oct. 6

Jamie Southards · 10-06-2007, 11:34 PM

Congratulations Michael Beard on your WIN tonight! Glad you waited 'til the finals to make me look bad instead of 1st round! ;~)
I would also like to thank Jefferson-Pageland dragway for having a super track all night long!

Thanks Jamie - good run! I could never make you look bad.

Congrats on your runner-up, and also Bob Earnhardt, semifinalist.

Many thanks to Mike Petrie and the Union Motorsports crew for feeding all of the S/SS crew!

Made it to the finals of the Mickey Thompson/Staging Light Graphics Ironman Club shootout, too, but took a nap. Congrats to Pageland's Ironman Club winners, Trevor Jenkins (Jr. Dragster), Brian Hicks (Top), and Chad Williams (Footbrake).

Thanks to all the S/SS racers that supported the show!

Michael what was the car count?

Michael Beard · 10-07-2007, 09:15 PM

Nine raced. A tenth was on-hand but broke before time trials.

Lee - everything ok? Thought you'd be at the track before I would. We missed you!

Chip was running behind and couldn't get there in time, so he opted for Dunn-Benson.

Thanks to the Pageland crew for giving us a showcase and a great place to race. Hopefully we can hold some more next year, and draw some more cars.

Good Job Duckboy.

Sorry I could'nt make it. We got the car back together late Saturday. We never would've made it to JP in time, so headed to DB instead. We ended up winning dash for cash and getting R/U in the race.

We missed out on some good shows at JP this year. Hopefully we will have our program in better shape next year and compete in some of their races.

nice track, I hope it will have some lights on the track for next year. When the sun goes down you can't see a black car on the track.

Stagin' Steve Letempt will be covering this event on his internet radio show on www.realracinusa.com, which will air on Wednesday at 8pm. Steve has invited both Mike Petrie and myself to be on the show. He's hoping to cover a lot more IHRA racers on his show. You can check out some of the archived shows on the site.
