"Live" from D3 Columbus LODRS - Page 3

Is anyone aware of another FWD SS Monte Carlo .... or is Dan Olding the owner & builder of the only one?

Rene Garza has run this 55 in SS since the 70s.

Ed Browns owns 2 CJs. Ed drives this 2016 and his brother Tom drives the 2014

Venice Perno from Ontario runs this SS/CS Mustang.

5:45 update - the 3:45 light drizzle turned into a small shower and as of 5:45 the rain has stopped .....but as I’m writing this I see drops starting to reappear on the windshield.

S/ST is about 1/2 done and Stock would be up next.

Cars have been called back to the lanes as of 6:45 PM.

Stock R1 finished a little after 9 last night. We start again at 8:00 with SG followed by SS. Looks like another cool overcast start to the day.

Sky got real pretty for a short window last night. Cool pic.

I got back from Columbus and I have to say I’ve never seen the track there as good as it was this weekend. The chief reporter busted my one and only son’s butt with a 9 thou package in the 3rd round today. Yep, Mike was .005 dead on 4!

Hey Bob --- Wow ! That's impressive ! Congratulations on getting the new Cat flying .------- Now that you sent the Le Mans down to Dave that junkie old Grand Prix must be just sitting in a field some place. I'll be happy to help you out with the removal and maybe even get it running and take it to one of our 422 All Star nostalgia races. No No don't thank me I'm happy to help. Danny :-)

Good one, Bob . Now keep it out of the second under zone.

Ol' Unk got that one wrong. He kept saying that thing was two tons.
3550 , car and driver in K/SA. Lighter than most Firebirds
We had that Bonneville for sale a few years ago (same body) . Never got a call.
