Ed, Thanks for all the pictures. I, especially, like the interior and engine shots of Randall Klein's 56 Nomad. I have never seen that car in person. That car looks awesome and too nice to race. How long has Randall had the Nomad?? do you know.

I hope the weather gets better and the complete event happens.

HI M Lefkes, How in the world would you know about that? Just curios.

We decided to leave tomorrow morning. There was a 2 hour delay due to a timing issue. Then just as they were going to run SG and SS it started sprinkling. They dried the track and then it started raining. So they sent them back and they start at 8am tomorrow. My SS/K buddy Wayne Denklau is still in with his Chevy II. Roddel,DeForrest,Jenkins,Pearson, Ross also still in SS. Sorry I didn't get more pics of stockers. I hope to be racing soon and not have time to live from lol but that's up to the Dr and jesel (waiting on rockers forever........)

Ashton I believe you were going to have Jerry Arnold help with that project. Jerry is a close family friend of mine and I remember you two talking about it at one of the division 3 races.
