Yeah, He pulled it through the internals of a button. He had it marked and could change his rt by the length he pulled through the switch. Never seen such a thing, and of course he was deadly on the tree.

Thanks for the post Michael! I watched this race on the live feed through out the weekend, looked like a blast! You put on a great show!

Well all i have to say is Thank You Michael and Loose Rockers, for putting races like this on and also Peter and Klye, i have been to both of these racing, been treated well and good run races. Drake the 2 killer SS cars are apart, this is why i brought the Turtle and it is a real SS car as well and its deadly, It is going this weekend along with the stocker to the foot brake race, leaving soon, for the bang for the buck ya cannot beat these races, hope there will be alot more, Win a 20k race and it is the same as 3 National event wins, so when ya all finish fulling your guts, come to Peidmont for the footbrake races Fri/Sat/Sun, and if ya fill your gut to much, ya don't have to change classes,LOL just same old shoe polish.Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Watched a little bit of the Piedmont race this weekend on MMTV (foot in cast so what else can I do) and while happy for Michael that it looked like a good turnout there didn't seem to be many class cars, perhaps 6 or 7 (?). Saw one solid red Grand Am that certainly worked like a top notch Super Stocker but not sure who it was. Kinda neat to see Herb Jr's son doing some good with an Aspen Wagon and of course that Steve Foley kid can drive anything (neither of them class cars). In any case, for the payout it certainly looked like a good race to attend before putting the car away for the winter, of course for Brian there's no good time to not race LOL. One nice thing about the foot brake/ door car bracket races is that they generally go pretty quick since you don't have the endless parade of dragsters burning across the line and such.

My only point being it looked like a well ran race with a great variety of cars (and S10's) with good payouts. What's not to like?
