Ran out of fuel???? I told you to stop at the gas station before it was to late. When the gas gauge hits a 1/4 tank you should stop and fill er up! You'll learn Sonny! All the way to Atco and you ran out of gas! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif GEEZE! Boy, I bet you even made Mike push the car too. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif

Re: Flying Dutchman Nova update
 

Nice meeting you guys!

Re: Flying Dutchman Nova update
 

Ha! Sammy with those sandwiches that he brought to the track, I don't know how anyone would run outta gas??? Oh, not that gas...you mean like Sunoco Gas? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif

I was so excited to see him run that I didn't get any pics of him on the track. I even had the official "Dutchman T-shirt" on too. Hoping that bbbenny can make it to the Grove for some grudge racing so that he gets to run the full quarter!
Thanks again for the fun day Dutchman! I had a good time.
