Stock S/S Combo @ Pacific Raceways

Carguy49 · 05-22-2018, 11:56 AM

I know I am early to inquire about this. There are 3 Combo races at Pacific Raceways (Division 6) this year. The 1st being on Saturday, June 9th. This is a week before the Division race at Mission. How many guys and gals will be there on Sat??????

The other 2 are July 28th and Aug. 25th. When I saw these on the schedule I was surprised. I had heard that there wouldn't be any this year - silly me.

I will be at the track for the 1st one for sure. I hope to see lots of my racing buddies and we can catch up on what has happened for all of us over the last few months. I have had a chance to talk with a couple of my buddies lately. I hope to see many friends at this race. Jim Devine bring ice cream, please.

Hey Ron i will be there, hope all is going good with you, know what you are going through hang in there it will be good to see ya and talk. Hopefully we will have a good turn out i know alot of guys dont want to hurt there stuff before the double header at mission, no time to fix it. Dont know if Jimmy will be back in the drivers seat by then.

I know the timing of this 1st event is very close to the Mission Double. I am sure that will keep several racers away. Let's hope several people need some seat time before Mission and will come out and have a great time.

I had heard that Jim was in an accident a while ago. I assume that he is doing as well as can be expected..

Good to hear from you Jim. I saw Brian Thompson at Bremerton on the 6th of May and Pat Brooks at Monroe Swap Meet last Saturday. I am doing as good as I can considering what I have been through these last few months. Looking forward to having some fun and great conversations with whoever shows up for this event. See you on the 9th.

Bad news, guys. The last time I was out at Bremerton, Seaburg had a new T/SA Mustang out. 78 or something like that. He also had his C/SA 428 Mustang out of the hanger for once.

I'm still a bracket racer unless something awesome happens at the National Open. I'll be on the lot somewhere.

I just checked the schedule for Bremerton Raceway and the National Open will be the weekend before - June 2nd and 3rd. Makes for 3 weekends in a row. WOW!!!!!

Carguy49 · 05-26-2018, 09:25 PM

I will be at Bremerton for the National Open. Not sure of which days, yet. It will be good to catch up with whoever is there.

Carguy49 · 06-04-2018, 11:25 AM

Weather, as of now, is not looking great for this weekend - bummer. I was looking forward to seeing many friends at this race. Maybe things will change for the better. Even though I don't race anymore, I really enjoy seeing my friends at these events and hanging with them.

I was at Bremerton Friday and Saturday for the National Open. Thank you many times over to all who I had a chance to talk with. I, probably, talked with over 40 people who gave words of encouragement and/or condolences about losing my wife. My family of friends runs deeper than I thought. It was a very emotional and extremely uplifting weekend.

Ron, glad you’re getting out and about....know who won the Combos at Bremerton? Any records?

Carguy49 · 06-04-2018, 11:22 PM

Jim, the combo on Saturday was won by Pete Oliviero and R/U was Dave Barcelon. Weather was the winner on Sunday. I wasn't there but I don't think any class was completed.There is a complete list of all the winners on the Bremerton site.

Cody Lane set the record in SS/BS - 8.42 @ 159.23
