OK... on our drive to the track this morning, gas dropped from $3.05 to $2.99. (that's the cheapest I've seen in a long while.........).

Just my luck... I filled up this morning at the $2.99 store and tonite they dropped the price to $2.89... (WOW!).

Great pics as usual! What a neat staging lane area, coming below the tower like that. And it was neat to see that I'm not the last racer still using an open trailer!!

Good luck tomorrow Tom!

thomas sheehan 10-11-2008 09:28 PM

Re: pics from Virginia
 
It is a very neat track........

also....NHRA has to be very happy with the turn out this weekend (record crowds and chamber of commerce weather!).

Thanks for the luck.... I sure can use it!

Tom

ps..... Ed.... Not sure about the wheels

Bryan Broaddus 10-11-2008 11:01 PM

Re: pics from Virginia
 
Thanks for showing us Westies some of the cars we hear about but never get to see. Even if they are in National Dragster it is almost always in black and white, not the cool color pictures you post.

stefan callender 10-11-2008 11:32 PM

Re: pics from Virginia
 
Hey Bryan, you need to get Jan Petersen out there to take some pictures of you Division 7 guys. We met her at Indy this year, she is a hoot. Plus she makes a mean sandwich.

thomas sheehan 10-12-2008 07:10 AM

Re: pics from Virginia
 
You are welcome Bryan.
Do me a favor and find a home for that FRANCO car out west.... please!

ps..... and Jan does make a mean sandwich (and she's pretty good with the camera also)

Re: pics from Virginia
 
Hi Stefan and Tom,

Thanks for the kind words, but I have to tell you that you all made our first trip to Indy, one we won't
soon forget. It was such fun to meet ya'll. It was great meeting Joe and Billy as well. Not to mention
your son Stef. Great kid. I sort of met Mike. LOL Handed him your lunches. We had actually met
him out here in Calif. one year when he was out here driving Bob Mazz's car. I see Tom that you are having a great day, and so is Joe. Much luck to both of you. I see Fletcher is still in too. Since I have
been home, I have told everyone how your guys in Div. 1 ROCK.

Tom we have really enjoyed all your pictures. Thanks and keep sharing.

Hugs to you all

Jan

Man, Gary Ewing's SS/JA Camaro is beautiful!!

Thanks for all the pictures!

once again ,great pics.

Jan Peterson 10-12-2008 07:18 PM

Re: pics from Virginia
 
Ed,

Your need to see Garys Car in person. It is absolutely spectacular.
We saw it at Englishtown. We were lucky enough to meet Gary,
thanks to Brian and Katie VP. My husband Art checked it out and
he said it was the nicest car he had ever seen. The paint on it is
beautiful.

Re: pics from Virginia
 
Thanks for the pictures Tom. Close run between the two of us 3rd round. I was cheering for you after that.

Tom,,, you're completely spoiling all of us this year,,,thank you very much. With the off season fastly approaching at least we'll have some great threads with your shots (and those of others) to look back on.

Re: pics from Virginia
 
Thanks Sterling (and everyone else).
Believe it or not.... I didn't get any pics from Sunday (sorry).

ps..... 3rd place sucks.... lol

Joe DeMarzo 10-13-2008 07:58 AM

Re: pics from Virginia
 
Tommy, 3rd place may suck but it is better than a first round r/u. Thanks for the pics and hope you had a safe trip home. See ya the Dutch?.
