Congrats to all the winners and all of the Record Setters especially my buddy Bob Bender one of Division Ones best, most colorful characters. Take note that the season isn't really over there still is one great race at Hagerstown on Nov. 3rd and 4th guaranteed not to disappoint.

Hi kids -Sorry I had to ditch you early Sunday but I had eye surgery waiting for me @ 6am Monday morning and I promised to rest a little before then .Anyway after losing third round ( with an .005 light I might add so who needs eye surgery ) I was hanging around the bosses pit ( who was driving the Hawk n Cook Cobra Jet ) until he lost - just after that a strange bird kept circling around his pit for 5 or ten minutes - think maybe the bird knew something - BTW , Ken lost because of a tardy light .........Hmmmmm. True story - even I couldn't make this deal up .

I'll get to the rest of my shots .........Honest injun ! ! !

I ran into a reliable source on Sunday afternoon and we got to talking about next year's schedule because I run a lot of the .90 Associations here on the EC and he just happened to mention that the Dutch would be considerably earlier next year. Like I said just "hear-say" but, I was told before the National Event which would throw it into September. Won;t know anything till the D-1 Schedule is released in November.

The Hawk and Cook CJ is one the best looking cars I have ever seen. Runs pretty well too!
Congratulations to them.

Saw the rumor here about the Dutch date moving and it is not true.

Maple Grove posted the dates of some of their big events in 2013 and the Dutch is listed October 17-20. Even a week later than this year.

Two weeks after the Auto-Plus Nationals. I guess there will be no camping out next year!

And a more fun race to go to.

Gonna be tired, going Maple Grove -> Memphis -> Maple Grove, but at least that's one race that's not on top of Memphis next year. Been a long time since I've been to the Dutch. Be great to make it next year.
