It would take one heck of a lot of space here so I am only posting the PDF version of the complete race report.

How long did it take to burn and bury the Anal House behind Sonny's?
Did jersey John really use the stripper pole you guys installed in his thong?
Was anyone rubbed out?
How many bullet holes were in the ceiling?

Just a note. Mike Swiss sent me some " Chicagoland drilled Mag fronts" which are really killer, Those are the fronts I used on Matt's winning car. Ask Mike about price and availability date.

Great job Noose! Both on the track and with the report. Problem is it just makes it all the more painful that we weren't there. 
The RP was supposed to be our vacation (and Cindys first look at an ocean)but things conspired to make us stay home, namely the loss of someone to mind the store while we were gone. It sounds like a good time was had by all. I already knew that the "Joysey" group were a great bunch from previous R4's. Hopefully our small contribution to the food fund was enjoyed. From your pictures it looks like JJ got his fair share. 
Congrats to Rob, Lynn, Noose, and everyone else involved. Looks like you had a GREAT event. Maybe we can make the trip east next year.

They installed a stripper pole in his thong? Glad I didn't see that! 
Seriously, a great report by Noose, as he always does. I can't imagine the hours he spends on events like this, most of which is behind the scenes before the day comes that the rest of us have fun. Many thanks to him, Rob and Lynn and their crew at Sonny's Fastlane, and everyone else who madeit such an enjoyable weekend.

Great race report Joe! The PDF format is great!
This would have been a race to be at, to bad our plans got changed. Again COGRATS to all the racers that made this such a great event. Also to Fastlanes for getting it all together with the sponsors and having the track in such great shape. Hats off to Jersey John, Noose and Tony P. for your awards as well.

Actually Tony, its still sitting behind the raceway. I haven't moved it yet. We're a little afraid of what we might find when we go in there LOL!!

Amazing as it might sound,there were still some cold beers remaining on Mon. morn when I left. This will be heartbreaking news to Noose.

Mr Noose,
Many thanks from a distant shore for your report and photographs.
If only I could convince my fellow Kiwi racers to develope such classes - what fun we would have
