Live from Beech Bend Sportsnational Open

[Michael Beard]

That's Ricky Baehr in the black Camaro. Multi-time track champ, former IHRA Summit No-Box World Champ. Already won a combo a week or two ago. Kid is BRUTAL. He turned it -.006 red vs Colvert in the semis. Colvert was dead-on 0. In the finals, he was red.

I had a TON of help from a BUNCH of good friends. I love my racing family! I very literally couldn't have done it without them. Almost missed second round when the starter buggered up and was freewheeling. Got it to catch at the last possible moment. Big thanks to Kevin Cradduck, Alan Roehrich, a gentleman whose name I didn't catch, and Ricky Baehr. Got by, and then barely got the starter changed in time for third round. THEN was just about out of gas, and there was no one at the fuel pumps. Greg and Andrew Hill jumped in to get me through. What a night!

Thanks again to NitroPlate for another big money S/SS race!
