Nice job Mike, you may have started a trend, event reporter and event winner!

A few pictures to post. #1 Qualifier in SS Jim Evanuik in his very unique Cleveland powered Escort Coupe. Jim just reset the GT/A record at Atco. Jim has been racing Fords for a long time and his engine shop puts out a number of winning circle track engine too.

Another one of the Milan Dragway Stock -SS alumni Dan Olding. Back in the day Dan ran a very cool 62 Impala SS/MA. His Monte Carlo is super clean.

Sorry for the wrong info but the blown-up motor turned out to be an exhaust rocker arm off on the '62 G.P. It sure sounded like a rod, but started it up and everything is fine so far.Bob Michael

I can understand you being a bit skittish about this, after what happened at The Northern Class Nationals.
So, I can stop looking for 389 blocks or 400's with no wear, for now?

Your intrepid pit reporter and Stock champion, Mike Delahanty! Great job on both jobs!

Mike getting drunk photobombed...

Saturday crowd...

Indy winner Brina Splingaire was redoing her contingency decals

Eventual Super Stock Runner-Up Bob Marshall chats with Div. 1 runner Kevin Panzino, who was enjoying his first "Norwalk Experience"

There were several Auto Meter Northern Class Nationals shirts representin' this weekend! The World's Greatest S/SS Event returns to National Trail Raceway, August 21-23.

I used shoe polish to make a chalk outline around him... but Tim Fletcher made a full recovery and chalked up a runner-up by the close of the weekend.

Seen at a used car lot while taking back roads to the track... pop quiz: What is it?
