Ok, some early results...


Get Away Stock Cars Event
Mike Kitty Katz puts a hole in the Edsel's grill while Derek uses a loaner from the VW used car lot for 3rd. The VW guy said it it was certified.

In the GTC-FK Chasers event, Preston "Bats" Meyer beats up on the New England Mob of Russ Upton and Gary Clinton, Sr. thus making the IRRA most wanted list. Upton had a cruiser that cozied into 2nd.

Tell me Katz was running his original four-year old Stock Car chassis?

Did he at least put a new body on it? LOL.

Yes, Katz ran his four-year-old car with a new a new Parma Cyclone.

In the Big Boy Coupes it was Mad Dog Iles taking TQ. Noose won concours and had second and third place, too. Eighteen entrants for total of 28 in Coupe.

Edsel flew the coupe and handsome Bruce slid by Mad Dog Iles for the podium.

Now have 30 for F1.

Didn't you hear? He climbed over my car four times at HVR a couple weeks ago, and his chassis have never been the same. It's all my fault.

Good morning from sunny Lawn Guyland. Seems some of the mobs took some big hits and some had to leave.

Other soldiers are coming in though.

So Kiwi took the E and the D and Bats Preston Meyer took the C. Big Pin Vin took the B. Yes that Vinny Spina who drove the race of his life running away like the cops were chasing him.

The total lap record was broken by Ol Bent Rim with 334 and Handsome Bruce broke it too with 330. The fast race lap was also broken.

The Can-am should be quite a race.

Handsome Bruce is the TQ man at 3.967!

The points are now tied. The families will be meeting to elect a new Don in the A main.

31 for Can-Am today.

Guyze, I seem to have forgotten my mattress at the track on Friday. Feel free to use it if you need, & don't bother getting it back to me if it's too shot up. Good luck to all--
