On another note the young people are not interested in spending the amount of money we spend to race a class car. . They can run an outlaw car far cheaper , alot quicker and faster and run races every weekend at a cheaper entry fee and if they win get paid a good amount...
DRC has posted the class winner photos and I thought that was very cool to see your Dad holding that trophy, well done. And agree that it must be pretty intimidating to see many class racers with the stackers and and rigs that represent such a huge investment. No wonder that they stick with the local 10.5, heads-up and brackets.
