Seeing the question marks on his face when I handed him the contingency packet was priceless! I just handed them to Eddie and told him to go win a race and we would worry about all that later! great job guys and what a great weekend of racing all the way around. See you all soon

Congratulations to Mike Bolton from the Ridings. He was my qualifying partner several times at Jackson. The whole family is truly nice, and its wonderful to have a first time winner. I've been told the 2nd win comes easier. He was the only one to stop the train this weekend "Locomotion".

I didn't know that Mike had not won a race but wish I would have. I did enjoy watching his car as I really can't remember seeing another first generation Barracuda.

I'm a bit disappointed with all you Mopar guys. Considering how gung ho the group usually is, I'm amazed that none of you have pointed out that of the six cars in a Stock final over the weekend, 5 were Mopars leaving only a lonely Chevy on Friday.

Just kidding about the disappointment, but I'm serious when I say that I really enjoyed watching some very good racing. Plus, I also got to watch one of my all time favorite stockers, the absolutely unique Grey Ghost.

I want to thank everyone for the response to this thread. I enjoyed reading every reply. My brother's family is the best. I'm happy I kept Myron's broom out of the Winner's Circle. I think Jamie stated it pretty accurately, Myron's Locomotion was on a roll. Congratulations to Myron on a near perfect Weekend!!!

Mike
