Re: "Live" from Indy US Nationals 2013
Just got back from the Teutons after the presentations for the winners and runners-up in the A/S and A/SA classes. Thanks to all who posted prizes for all. I am sure Jim Schaeter will put all the details up on that thread. I have some pics that I will upload in a bit.

1. Congrats on doing well Jack-no shame in losing to Peter and I really respect the no excuses attitude that you showed in what you wrote. 2. The fact that you had folks asking for autographs combined with the interest of the manufacturers in class racing ought to make some of the people stop complaining about the new cars. 3. Compare the sad state of pro stock (Erica can't get the level sponsorship that makes running her car economically viable) with what is going on in class racing. If you are Ford or Chevy or Chysler-Mopar, does in make sense to put your dollars in pro stock or Funny Car or class racing? Well we and John Force know the answer to that question. I've said it before and I'll say it again, if I'm Bob Tasca (either II or III), I'm going to get a stocker or super stocker. He should go talk to Ray Skillman about what makes he most sense and which is the most fun. |

Re: "Live" from Indy US Nationals 2013
Best video ever of Indy!
Back In the day we would have an 8am date. We showed up at 1:45 with the cooler. Drove it in last and was the first ones out running! Brian MaCormack, The Worners, Linc Morehead, my self and a big cooler of BEER! We always tried to get the strippers to help us. Awesome Video Randi. Still have no idea what Bo says when he mumbles. Nothing better than putting the trophy on the roof at teardown!

Nice video. Randi even looks like a movie star.
6 hours and that's a simple engine, how long to get the Mod Motor in the Mustang apart? |

So much for the 1000 foot club in the stands, it'll be the 700 foot club now.
