It's great to see an old time hot-rod still being tweaked and chasing records! That's extremely impressive and he should be proud!

Great job Rick
That car has been drag raced and held records for a long time.

I was in the stands for his first 10.97 pass, the guy sitting beside me thought the car must be a big block.

Thanks Randall and All, I appreciate it!

It was a fun weekend and although you take your chances with
the weather, if it doesn't rain at Mission it is one of the fastest tracks out there.

Besides my 10, The Nottinghams set the SS/EA record with
their "single four" 427 FE 1967 Fairlane @ 9.65 - way to go
Mike and Bob! ( Makes me want to finish the SS/D car )

Jim Isherwood was #1 qualifer in Super Stock with a 9.23
with his 1967 Belvedere Hemi. - Well done Jim!

Good friend Rick McKinney took home the trophy in Super Stock!
Congrats - You deserve it!

And lastly don't know if you all noticed Jirka Kaplan ran the first
Five, a 5.97, with a Competition Eliminator car.
That's pretty awesome too!

( My log-in isn't working so I'm using Dee's )

Thanks again Rick
