Great night Ken....the stands were packed...haven't seen Great Lakes like that in a long time. The place looks awsum.My son took a pic with Ohio George Montgomery and Junior Thompson too !!! Ken was there with his entire garage sitting in the car show too...beauties Ken. I went to see Shake run..haven't seen it in years..had to wait for an oil down cleanup from the Don Schumacher Stardust funny...sat thru the jets which are earth shattering and FINALLY Shake made her pass...one thing is always true. "Run she may...but SHINE she must" ...that car was gleaming.The 62 Impala was a twin turbo monster and made a really hairy pass....seems that he got out of the groove and got sideways a bit...and I guess a monster turbo car keeps spooling for a bit AFTER you get out of the throttle...needles to say it got a little scary there but damn that thing took off like a slingshot when he got back in it !! Cool stuff...great weather..great night.

Man, this shot almost brings tears to my eyes.

I wanna go back to the 60s!

Looks like the place is thriving. Also good to see Gags out enjoyin some family time. I gotta get up there sometime SOON!

And as always, to Ken for the Super Coverage.

Dennis...I mentioned that to my family when they all came down pit road together. This is a proud bunch of guys and they wait down at the end of the return road and all file past as a goup...that Rompin Redskin 63 Cat screams...last pass I saw him run was 920's !!
