Pics up at:





Big thanks to Mike Swiss for hosting a great event, to Jackie Swiss and Carol Schatz for keeping the food going and all the other things to keep the event flowing along smoothly.

All the sponsers that gave race prizes,everybody got at least 2 or more prizes and they were all top quality items.

Thanks to the Speedzone crew for the latenight pizza,that hit the spot.

Thanks to my pit neighbor Ray Price for his tireless work keeping everything going even while injured,hope you are feeling better soon.

Thanks to all the competitors that showed up and ran,everybody helped everybody else out no matter what you needed somebody stepped up and gave what was needed. That makes the Event very special.

The absence of Sano Dave from the event was on everybodys mind,we all wish him a full and speedy recovery,Jerry Kulich held an impromptu raffle for a pit box and raised over $400.00. Thanks Jerry. There will be a large raffle in the near future,lots of good equipment was offered by the competitors

And the biggest thanks goes to the IRRA,If the 5 founding members hadn't made the commitment to try to make this Retro thing work,there would be 12 guys at BPR,12 guys on the East coast and the same in Chicago having monthly races as a local club group.There woud be no Sano,R-4,Rero-Palooza,Fall Brawl or any other national event.I think a lot of people lose sight of that fact because it has grown so fast. Thank you gentleman. Bill

Bill............... YOU ARE THE MAN by going to most of these races and documenting these events. Good thing it's a digital world and you don't have to pay for film and developing film.

Thanks so much Bill!!!!!

Bill,

Many thanks for posting the photos of the chassis, bodies from all the classes, and the racers. Helps those of us who weren't there get a feel for what was happening and what we missed. The photos are always appreciated.

Jack Beers surely deserves the longevity award! He's been concourse winning cars since the Rod and Custom races!
