I have been as quick as 14.68 with pump gas, but with the vp it was farting and missing all weekend. But still had a ball and met a ton of great people.

Which VP?

TD just finished with an oil down at the top end. TS next. Alcohol coming after then the comp final.

Good morning - You really have to love it - last evening SuperStock got to run during the "show" in front of a large crowd - not a packed house but plenty of fans who really enjoyed the brightly painted / whellstanding cars they don't normally see. When S/S came out for their first round my first thoughts were that the fans would get up and go for an ice cream or something but it didn't happen - they took their seats and enjoyed every minute of the S/S show . They may have come thru the gates to see the Alcohol cars and the circus acts like the Jets and Wheelstanders but you could tell the S/S ers won their hearts .

A few of the runs were really super indeed - like when the "Ice Cream man" pushed the "Terminator" out the back door and ran him out by .002 or when little Joey Santangelo put Big Bo Kenney with his new '12 Mustang back on the the trailer or when the young guns were blazing - and Arney Martel Jr. came out on top when facing Anthony Fetch - it really was a super good show - it you weren't here put it on your list for next year .

And last night after S/S was over the first annual Markow Race Cars picnic was held - plenty of food and adult beverages .....and lots and I mean lots of bench racing going on - don't miss it next year ! ! !

New England must be the Happy Hunting ground for '66-'67 Deuces.
