Anyone know where info may be posted? Can't find results or info.

I haven't found any results either, I left when the rain shower came... really cold, good air (for LV) The hemi shootout was the smallest ever with only 5 cars!! Two others broke yesterday. No Wescotts, Barton, Pancake or Raines. One car that broke was the former DeFrank car with a Wescott engine, don't remember the other car. We'll find out tomorrow who won.

Was watching "Mopars at the Strip".........Jim Hale beat Ken Etter in the final....had trouble hearing, but heard Jim was double O something and Ken broke out. Congratulations Jim.....nice driving.

I got a call as I was driving home from Vegas, yes Jim Hale
had a double oo with a 5 and Ken had a 15 or close to that.

Today was clear sunny no wind, Thur, Friday & Saturday had
every other kind of weather you could think of, wind and a little
rain.

it was quite the weekend at Vegas, as Thursday Sally & I parked over 250 cars in 70 mph wind gust. Friday was darn cold with Stephen Hebert with his Reher & Morrison powered Hemi Cuda being #1 spot in the SS/AH shooutout @ 8.577-152.93 but on the run a drive shaft left the car and played havic with the undercarriage of the car. Stephen, John & Benn Holt elected to load the car and call it a weekend cause of the damage done. Great Finals as Mark beat Dave on a holeshot 8.77 to Daves 8.72. Thanks guys for waiting a extra day to get better weather for finals as I know some wouldn't of been so understanding as the 7 i had there, great bunch of racers i had this year, thank you all.
1. S. Hebert 8.577-152.93
2. D. Raybourn 8.730-150.72
3. M. Vieira 8.809-150.75
4.R, Houser 8.824-155.01
5. T. Mandella 8.832-148.46
6. J. Percy 8.927-149.05
7. J. Jenkins 8.981-148.25

It was really great talking Jim Hale into coming to the event and watching him go on to win the SS/Stock Combo. Ken did a great job on his runner up finish also.
Also SS/Stock racer John Calvert won the special heads up A/FX eliminator we had there with his 64 Thunderbolt.

Thank you to everybody that came and ran the race and I'm going back to Ohio on Tuesday, my buddies, Rich South and Ralph Cardamone wants me to go to four wide with them as soon as i get off the plane but i'm passing on it so i can get the stats sent to the printers this week.
