Live from Hershey , PA - NHRA Division One Awards Banquet - Page 2

The banquet is behind us - ate some very good food considering its made for hundreds - the champions have been crowned and the hardware handed out - congrats to Joe Santangelo (Stock) and brothers Peter ( S/Gas ) and Sal Biondo ( Comp) along with James Antonette ( S/S ) all that is left is the music / dancing and consuming adult beverages while remembering the events of last season - both good and bad .

Last but not least we'll talk about Marylands' favorite son - Bobby Bender - the 2011 NHRA Division One "Person of the Year"............well deserved for sure .

Congratulations Bobby and Penny.
I guess I better get the wagon finished up so you can haul that big award back to MD. !!

P.S. I just took a second look at the backdrop for your award photo, Was Jack sending out a subliminal message?
