Sorry for the lack of coverage, but when I'm at the track I'd rather enjoy the people than mess around on the internet. Highlights from my point of view were mostly about meeting new friends and hanging out with old ones. Got to meet Allen Patterson, Charley Bob, Dic Geary, Brenda Grubbs, Gary Stinnett, and our neighbor Joe LeBlanc. Stopped by the fish fry at the Jenkins compound and sampled some tasty catfish that Justin had noodled...definitely tastes better than the ones caught on a hook! Was fortunate enough to win 2 rounds each race, plus got to root for my buddy Jim Parsons all the way to the semis on Sunday. In all it was a great time and NHRA staff put in a lot of hours to make sure it went smoothly. Next time I'll try to get more pics of faces - the cars are great, but they're nothing without the folks.
I couldn't add the pics through my phone, so here goes: The stickshift COPO (and #1 qualifier piloted by Tyler Cassil) out of Patterson's shop: ![]() Bryan Dixon and Jim Parsons: ![]() Dic Geary and I paired up for 2nd round of the 1st race on Friday: ![]() Next time we're putting tinfoil on the windows of the truck house....the lights at night are big and bright ![]() Our home base for 4 days and nights... ![]() The track will continue on. Let's hope the next chapter is a good one! ![]() Just about "Go Time" ![]() |
