I think it would be great if we could work at getting some sort of series going at some of these tracks that aren't on the Divisional schedule (Spokane, Medford, Madras, Walla Walla, Renegade and others). If we want to encourage local racers to build class cars, we need to make a showing so they can see what it's all about. I had quite a few people stop by and quiz me about how class racing works, this is our opportunity to attempt to groom some future racers.

I agree!! I had a really great time. I wish I didn’t get sick Saturday and could have races Sunday. Congrats on the win!

Jason, hope you are feeling better. Sorry you had to leave and miss out on the fun on Sunday.

A big THANK YOU to all the racers who attended this race, 19 in all. We realize it was short notice, but that was beyond our control. From talking to most of you over the two days it looked like everyone had a good time.

Thanks also to:
Mike Merk and Ryan Warter who collaborated and contributed to the payout to encourage more racers to attend.
Mike and my grandson, Kaden, for working the burnout boxes for 2 full days. Everyone really appreciated your work.
Brian Thompson for helping me with the qualifying order and ladders.
Larry McLanahan for ensuring that track prep was up to par, and for going home and getting your FS/A car to race the 2nd day after having problems your FSS/C car the first day.
Dave Noll for taking and posting the winner circle photos. (I completely forgot!)

I enjoyed talking with everyone, especially the ageless wonder, Pete Kost, who at 86 years young is an inspiration.

Billy Nees might have had a seizure if he were there with so many of those 302 Ffords in the pits.

Congrats to Gary Gandee and Jim Caughlin on their wins. The Ford guys were thumping their chests with an all Ford final on Sunday.

We will try to work with track management to get 2 races on the schedule next year. No guarantees, but we'll give it a shot.

Good luck to those headed for Las Vegas.

Much thanks to the folks that put this on! Haven't been to Renegade in 28 - 30 years. Glad the goatheads are gone. Congratulations to Gary Gandee Jr and Jim Caughlin on their wins. I am all for having some more of these at some of the other tracks.

Look at the grin on her face. It was there all weekend. Her crew chief had the car set up for a slick track - but it wasn't. Big wheelstands all weekend. She loved it. The bad new was she had to race her brother in the first round of the first race.
