Jeff,
I'm glad that you took my friendly dig in a good natured way. The Dirty Dozen.............I hate those guys.
The Matty Box is a crude and primitive tool compared with what's out there today, and good grief its hard to detect.

Sorry to stray from this thread's intent.

This weekend was a NHRA Open @ Bremerton Raceway. We only had 10 Stock and Super Stockers show up for the combo. Here is the list of cars.

1 u/sa 72 comet
2 gt/la 91 olds calais
3 l/sa 65 valiant
4 t/sa 72 maverick
5 w/sa 76 pinto wagon
6 i/sa 66 chevelle
7 u/sa 79 mustang
8 p/sa 89 mustang
9 ss/la 76 roadrunner
10 n/sa 74 grand am

At the 1st race on Sat the winner was the u/sa 79 mustang of Gary Gandee, jr. Sunday's race was won by Darrick Ellam in his w/sa 76 Pinto Wagon.

Yes, Bremerton is an 1/8 mile track, but a win is still a win. Congrats to slow cars winning.
