From the very first phone call when Barry started the inception of this race, I told him we were on board to help in any manner. I believe that Dave and Alan were smiling down on us yesterday as we honored them. On behalf of Bill Holmes, Russ Wernes and myself, I would like to thank everyone who participated and all of the generous sponsors in making this such a memorable and successful event. I would also like to thank the ASRA board for allowing this to be part of their program and to Wayne Delmonte and the LV staff . Barry Parker and Greg Barsamian put an enormous amount of effort into this event and deserve a big Thank You as well. Congrats to Lincoln Morehead on his win over James Perrone on Saturday and to Anthony Fetch defeating Joe Lisa in the big event on Sunday. With the theme of the event as it was, it was fitting that the winning car was a Dave LeBrun car ! This was by far one of the most satisfying events I have had the pleasure of being involved with. Well done everyone !!!

I have to agree with both Barry and Dave. This was a spectacular race. So many people showed up just to watch. People we have not seen in years. Barry and Gregg did an amazing job. 108 cars on Sunday for an association race is truly amazing. Every one who was there deserves a pat on the back. They will be talking about this race for years to come. Thanks to all who made this a great weekend. Gary

It's a great time to be D1 racer with this very special race, the ECSSA, ASRA D1 National Opens and the NHRA Lucas OIl schedule. Wow!
Thank you Barry Parker, Dave Ley, LVD and everyone who made this happen to honor two of the greatest guys I had the privilege of racing with. |

Awesome Job by everyone involved with putting this event together ... It looks like it could have not gone any better, Great Weather, Great Car count and some great Racing as well, Congratulations to Anthony Fetch and the P.C. Richard Team along with the other finalist as well, for those who don't know, I was very close to Dave and I will always cherish the great memories that I have of him, I personally appreciate all of the effort that went into making this happen, I'm sure that Dave and Alan were watching from above and are extremely thankful and proud that such an amazing event was held in their honor, this photo shows them doing battle at C I R in 1981
