Maple Grove is once again.... "THE place to be!".
If you haven't been here... you gotta get here.
96 stockers on friday.... and we ain't done yet! (nothin like it... anywhere!).

thanks to my buddy Vic Guilmino... who has taken the task of posting his pics this week from his very own photobucket account. (great job Vic!... keep up the good camera work!)

thanks also to Jim Boburka for his very own "HELMET CAM".....
I'll try and post a few of his videos he captured.... (remember, i'm no Toby.... the quality will be nowhere near his stellar video efforts (Toby,,,, you raised the bar!)...

Here is Jim Boburka's first time trial this morning..... (hope it works)....

JUST CLICK ON THE PICTURE BELOW (with your left mouse button).

Okay.... the video goes out to photobucket... but it appears to be working!

Jim let me use his HELMET CAM but i had it mounted a little crooked....lol
Just tilt your head a little left and you'll be okay!

Remember... just left click on the pic below.....

Tomn, those cam shots were great.One critique though.The volume was a bit high.Lots of distortion.Probably wouldn't be a problem in my car though.:>):>)

Also,I believe that Challenger is the one that was put together by Tom Goldman.Nice car,
real nice workmanship.
