Martin Michigan FAST/ Pure Stock

[bruno17]

My first event and I can't believe the calibre of cars that were in attendance.Best show/race I've ever been to.Local car shows just won't be the same anymore.
Met great people and had a fantastic time.

Glad you all liked the lamb kabobs!

Just wait till Stanton! We'll get the parking lot party to another level.

Hey Benoit.......I'm gonna work on my burnouts.

Thanks to all that made my weekend so memorable!

Bruno,

Great to meet you and I am glad that you had a good time! I have always wanted to park close to Pete and JJ (for the beer), but you are making the pull of the Canadian group too much to stay away from!!! Great looking/ running car and the kabobs were excellent. At this race, I have realized that you start out coming to race, but the friends, food, and fun are what you really remember out of the event! (I hate to say this out loud, but I think that the bulk of my 'friends' are in the the parking lot!)

Even though it was hot (yes, even by Missouri standards it was hot!) the car ran the best times that it has ever run at one of these events! [email protected] during Friday T-n-T. 13.46 @102.7 during eleminations in 93 degree heat!! Travel over 700 miles just to get paired up with your traveling buddy in the shootout! I ran aganst Steve Hodges '70 440+6 'Cuda and took him out in 2 rounds. I believe that we have slated a rematch at KCIR sometime this summer! The car weighed in at 4177# and I still am running the 3.23 gearing!

I know you guys listen to me and Pete and Rusty and the rest of us harp on and on about Pure Stock and FAST, but as Bruno stated above, once you've experienced just 1 event, you'll be HOOKED, guaranteed! It truly is a car show in motion...

Pete,

Even though I ate as much as I did, I think I sweated out more in weight than I consumed. I hopped on the scale at home after the weekend and was 12# lighter than I went up. Water weight?

Hey now, you left out the part about me using a $2,000.00 8:1 junkyard backup engine. Enjoy it while it lasts Rusty.

Just wait until Rusty gets his new axle ..........
