Brainerd update from the 2 Brians:

Seaburg bit it in the 3rd rd in a close race with Randy Lyn Shipp. Both ran their numbers close in a hellish head wind/difference was .01 on the light. But Brian left with a class Wally so he has a extra passenger on the ride home.
I didn't have enough power in these Midwest conditions to pick a spot on the ladder and like Seattle I got matched up second rd with a heads up. My opponent was Bill Rink who has one of the fastest SS/MA's in the country. Oops...that's why this isn't bracket racing!

Having fun, seeing old friends making new ones and racing . Does it get any better?

Bracket finals in Boise next!

Tough break getting in a headsup against Bill. Very fast car and a good racer to boot. Give Brian a big high five from me on winning class. In looking at the numbers I guess the Caddy thought he had Brian covered, or something - .460 light WOW.


Did you guys pit next to a new Challenger S/G car?? I thought I saw the Comet in the background when they showed the S/G car.


I hope the weather is not as bad as predicted before you guys can get out of there. Have a safe trip home and good luck at the Bracket Finals in Boise. Are you guys still hitting another race before the finals?? I can't remember the conversations with you two, brain fade I guess.


As of last night Steven Horton is number 1 at Seattle at the Divisional. Probably won't change with it being warmer today than yesterday. Haven't seen the latest stats, so not sure.

Yes those were their cars in the back ground.

Thank you. I thought I saw the Comet during the qualifying show, but looked closer during the Sunday show. Definitely the Comet with Brian's Mustang convertible behind it.


Not only are the cars cool, but Brian Thompson's trailer is very unique. A 2 car open trailer with enough room for his golf cart also.
