Here is something for you guys to chew on!!!

Musclecar reunion and Nostalgia drag
The event is slated for the 1st weekend in October. And it appears that we might have a F.A.S.T./ factory stock event within the confines of this event. Perfect time for all of those Dueces in Iowa to show up and race, right!!!!

Here is the link I have started on the v8Buick site.

I forgot to mention that BIG is supposed to show and make a couple of passes in Swamp Rat VIII!

Ladies and gentlemen!!!!!!

I just recieved word today that we are able to make this into the Midwest Regional F.A.S.T. and Factory Stock race. Mark your calenders, shine up the paint, and bring your toy out to play at this big show. F.A.S.T. racing will just be a part of the fun, but I know that I am geeked to have this event in my back yard!!! They were asking that at least 10 people be signed and committed by September 1st. $65 for the race weekend!! Saturday night qualifiying under the lights with some cool October air and a track that sticks like glue. If you are interested in F.A.S.T. and Factory Stock rules go to this website and it will be spelled out for you: F.A.S.T. website You can also PM myself with your phone number and I will give you a call.

Quiet group here, Rusty.

Mailed in my entry yesterday. Still need to reserve the room where you and Hodges recommended. Still go on that?

That hotel is still a good place.

For everyone, this is shaping up to be a big event. We would also like to get some fresh people in the Factory Stock and F.A.S.T. racing. It should be a great time and nighttime qualifying should be a hoot!

Getting geeked for this weekend. Looking forward to seeing Tom and his cars. Is the Yellow Sub going to make it?

Here is how everything shook out:

#1 Rob Clary- 69 Yenko Camaro- 12.235 @115.53
#2 Jim Spetzmen- '69 Super Bee 440-6-- 12.26 @ 111.73
#3 Wayne Nelson- '68 428 CJ Mustang--12.693 @ 108.04
#4 Kirk Bratka--63 Belvediere Max Wedge--12.868 @ 106.05
#5 Cindy Garrison-- 70 Buick GS Stg 1--14.109 @ 101.07
#6 Joel Nystrom-- Steve's 70 440-6 Cuda--14.486@ 95.93
#7 Kenny Schram-- '63 Fury max wedge--14.511 @102.82
#8 Rusty Small-- '69 Hurst/ Olds-- 14.8 --Broke

We grabbed a guy out of the car show and he was unable to stick around for qualifying--Jim Chapman with a beautiful '64 Fury Max wedge-- He ran a 13.26 for a single run. I think we may have hooked another one!

Oh yeah, I almost forgot about Hodges! Just a lowly 11.31 at 126!!!!! Way to go buddy, I hope that Virginia is a little better air than what we had this weekend!!!

As for the event, the only thing I could have ask for is more passes (selfish). The track was sticking hard and Jim Spetzmen managed a 1.82 60'.

Somewhere around 450 cars racing, stands filled to capacity and standing room only along the fence. Too hot on Saturday then rained out on Sunday. Did I mention that this is racing and all will be good!
