We won a few and had fun starting to learn how to work on a Stocker and the repairs and car knowledge.

Nice story on Bud & Dewey Cook from your area. They won a Super Stock meet with their Hemi at Riverside (Proctorville, Ohio). The youngest son came up to Dewey when he picked up the CASH (remember$$) and said "Does this mean we can stop for a steak instead of the balogna in the cooler."
