Re: SCR14 Pics
Thanks for the pics Dan.Looks like it was a good turn out.

Re: SCR14 Pics
Bruce,
No, however Jim`s amazing LS6 needs to be featured in the sYc -Members Rides. I am hoping that Jim decides to enter his LS6 in my 1970 Chevelle Display at the 2011 MCACN`s. Dan |
Re: SCR14 Pics
nice shots dan

Re: SCR14 Pics
yeah that is me (slimsls6), with my dad John & son Austin. Driving to the reunion in a LS6, looked over at my dad & son in the back seat, thought to myself life doesn't get much better then this, memories for life. It was a pleasure to meet: Postsedan, Ricksls6, & Bashton, thanx to everyone for showing us a good time, Jim

Re: SCR14 Pics
Great pictures Dan. I will try to get some up later. I had a great time also and can't wait to do it again next year. It was good seeing you, everyone I talked to and the great variety of cars. Thanks to Rick Pauley for coming over and lending a helping hand with Jerry and me on my carb issue.

Awesome Jim! You've got to get your LS6 to MCACN...and get me a write up and pics for the Members Rides section! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img] |

Thanks Sam. My best pass was [email protected]. That's the quickest ET so far but the car REALLY needs some gears. I did have a 109.52 on the 12.98 run which is the fastest MPH for the car. The 3.73's with 28" tall tires are not working real good with the small in motor. I was going through the traps at only 5200rpm. I also was not trying to leave too hard off the line, I don't want to break anything. I made 9 passes. 2 of them I missed a gear [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/blush.gif[/img] the current shifter still needs more work [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/mad.gif[/img]. Other than those two bad runs the car was very consistant. 12.90, 12.96, 12.98, 13.00, 13.12, 13.14 and 13.15. Kurt |
Re: SCR14 Pics
Thats really good Kurt. Consistent! I think .56's would really do that car justice. 12.50's all day I bet, maybe even a little better.

Re: SCR14 Pics
I say, definetly Better!

Re: SCR14 Pics
As always, great to spend time with old friends, and meet new ones. Mix in some really cool cars, many doing their thing on the drag strip, does not get any better then that.
Thanks to RT 66 Raceway for allowing us to spend the day at their facility. Talk about big time, that place is unreal. The first time I pulled from beneath the tower and saw the track, stadium seating etc, overwhelming. The staff was very courteous and kept things running smoothly, hats off to them. Thanks to Dennis Barker and Steve Bimbi with NickeyChicago, Bob Ashton with MCACN and Tamri with MK Insurance who provided food, drinks and other assistance when needed. Of course thanks to everyone who attended, hope each and everyone, whether racing, showing or just watching, had a good time. A couple of highlights for me, one, of course watching Rob and Jon go head to head in the ’69 and 2010 Cameras, and two, one of the last races of the day, Jim Parks going up against Howie’s hired gun in Kim’s Gibb Camaro. Though both were told not to go under 10.00ET, we all knew what was about to happen. As Jim’s car shot out of the hole, so did Kim’s car with the frontend in the air. As it settled down, we watched as both drivers hit their shiftpoints, running side by side. As they crossed the line, the boards lite up with a 9.64 to a 9.98. A couple of posts have mentioned SCR15. Well, thanks to the great turnout of cool cars, both racing and in the show area, RT 66 has extended an invitation for us to return in 2012. What is really neat about this, in 2012 both the SCR and RT 66 will be celebrating their 15th anniversaries, and RT 66 would like to do some sort of nostalgia event(s) to commemorate this milestone. |
Re: SCR14 Pics
Great News Tom. I can't tell you how much it hurt to know I couldn't make it this year. First time in 9 years I had to pass. It WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN!
<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 14pt">Sign me up for SCR XV RIGHT NOW!</span></span> The only consolation to the weekend was the time I spent yesterday at Central Illinois Dragway in Havana. The new management pulled out some stops with a true nostalgia day featuring the Nostalgia Super Stock guys and a Special Two-outta-three Match Race between the Midwest Legends: Arnie Beswick and Dick Messino. Great racing, superior showmanship, and as Tom said above, ... Good Times with Good Friends. To cap off the night, Arnie, Dick, and all the NSS guys filed past the crowd on the return road and saluted the crowd, with Arnie standing on the golf cart shouting, "Thanks For Coming Out to see us". That man is a Class Act! Just a thought: <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 11pt">SCR XV Nostalgia Meet</span></span>, ......

Re: SCR14 Pics
I was lucky enough to be paired up with Tom in Red Alert towards the end of the afternoon. I was driving a black 70 Chevelle and Tom apparently had a problem and didn't make a full pass. Did anyone happen to get a photo of the two of us lined up together ?
And thanks to the Clary's for putting on the event. Cooler weather would be nice next year, though [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img] |

Kurt's chevelle is looking good to me with the quarter window stickers, slicks and the I drive this car around license plate. If that was a B+W of that car I would think it is 1969 all over again!

Jim, It was a pleasure to meet you and your family. You are definitely the right person to own your car as you have cared for its originality the way I would. Had a lot of fun meeting a few of the members here. It was a nice show and I thought the weather was pretty decent for this time of year. Thanks for posting the pics Dan and Kurt. Glad I could be of help on your carb Kurt. |

Re: SCR14 Pics
Thanks for posting Dan - it was great to meet you finally.
Just getting back into town but we had an absolute blast - sorry that we had to go around 2:30 to make a baseball tournament in the Dells, wanted to hang around after racing but could not. Definitely worth the time we spent there. Great group of people, great track, great cars, and great fun. Can't wait for next year. Thank you to the Clary's for organizing a wonderful event. Jake |
Re: SCR14 Pics
Thanks you Clary's for putting this event on! My son and I had great family time...... and I still went quicker than him in my car!(ha ha)We also enjoyed dragging the "evil bay" Deuce along for folks to look at. Ya, we'll be there next year!

Re: SCR14 Pics
----Jake,,,Saw a Nassau Blue 62 in the staging lanes. Did Big Jake make a pass??? Sure wish I could have been there as It looks like all had a good time. Thanks for all the great pics as well.......Bill S
