[Charley Lillard]

Thanks to the Clareys and all the volunteers for all their hard work. It was a great time. Fun was seeing Kasey go down the strip for the first time in years. He was only gonna make one pass. I tried to bet him 20.00 that he would make more than one. He finished his pass and was right back in the staging lane. Also great to see Darrell make a few passes till Nikki blocked his way back to the staging lane. Darrell had never been down the 1/4 mile before but after the first pass I think he was hooked. I really want to encourage any other Supercar owners that have never done the drag race portion to come and try it. You don't have to worry about being fast or looking stupid because you have never done it before. For me it has turned into a very fun part of the event. Yes it can be a bit intimidating at first but we are there to walk you thru it and I have yet to see anyone not make a second pass once they make that first one. Maybe other first time drag racers can chime in on their experience. You have no idea how hard I worked on Darrell and Nikki, starting at Carlisle. Now I think they are hooked.
Another great part of the weekend was when about 10 of us headed to the go kart track on Sat night. Think Demo derby with track workers looking the other way.......

I was gonna buy a computer keyboard , remove a few certain keys and award it to Kasey at the banquet but it might have tipped him over the edge to///////////PERMANENT--------CAPS((((((((LOCK!!!!!!!!
Thanks to the gang at Legendary Motors for bringing the L89 Nova for us all to enjoy. Thanks to the Supercar Workshop gang for all their hospitality and bringing such great cars. I have a great picture of Caleb Arone here somewhere. A big thanks to Stephano and Nickey for his sponsership and attendance. And a special thanks to all of you that brought your cars. It is the sum of the people and their cars that make this such a fun event.
