This was a great race and it was like a homecoming for me. I got to meet up with many old friends from when I raced slot cars in Florida (I live there for 11 years). 
 
Great event, I want to thank Ed Hoffman from putting on such an awesome event. Lots of fast guys and very close racing.
 
My most favorite race was racing side by side with the "Kid" (Nathan Picket) in the stock car race. Good memories for sure.


It was great seeing you Doc and enjoyed getting to race with you again.
Glad you made it home safely and hope to see you again soon.

I had a great time at the Rumble. :good:

 

Thank you to Eddie, his wife and everyone that helped out. Great job folks. 

 

And a big thanks to Jay Guard for the hard work keeping everyone on the straight and narrow at the tech table. He worked hard at it, and I appreciate his efforts.

 

Hopefully we can all do it again next year.

Obsessed is the word the lazy use to describe the dedicated.
