Who had the cleanest Pacer wagon I'd ever seen, left lane pits, hillside side at the scoreboards?

TurkJoan,
There was an issue with the points totals this past weekend. They had to be (are being) manually done this week and checked by the expert himself GM. I would think by friday they will be sorted out posted and correct. As always if you find a mistake let Jamie knows asap.

ChuckTCongrats to all the winners:
Matt Powell over Matt Wyribal in Bike
Jim McCully over Josh Barnett in Trophy
Jen Whalen over Jake Matis in Street
Mark Romeo over Bill Turk in Modified
Brad Butterfield (I think?) over Rachel Kuskie
Scary moment for Paul Burns when the chute didn't open on his sweet Lumina. Banged the car up, toasted a couple marshmallows, but he is fine.

Steve from PaGlad Pauls ok
SV..want to give a shout out to the staff for getting the juniors ladder figured out, was nice and smooth this week

...and for the second chance race for the kids they really enjoy that.
I really wish we could get some more kids in the TCR class. It's a very inexpensive way to introduce young drivers into drag racing, just look how well Josh Barnett is doing this year, a graduate from the TCR program.
Most important, keep the shiny side up

Tony FagnilliHow bad is Pauls car? How fast was he going?
May 20, 2012, 09:55 PM
ChuckTSteve - Completely agree about TCR. I wish I knew some kids that age to encourage to join up.
Ray - Yep, 3rd points day was completed yesterday
Jeff - Friday Night at the Races is the same as last year, I believe. 10.00 and up, 9.99 and quicker, each class paying $600 to win, $200 runner up, $75 semis. Friday will also have a quick 16, 8 door cars and 8 dragsters. Must pay for class when entering gate - cannot sit and wait to see what the bump will be, then enter. Sunday, 2 classes, box and no box, 2 purses, each $45 entry, $1000 to win, $350 runner up, $100 semis, $15 round money starting second round win.
Tony - I want to say 8.70 or so? Front end is banged up pretty good, along with fire damage. I think driver's quarter has some Armco stripes too.

Chuck is about right, beat up pretty good in the front looks like some drivers side front chassis damage for sure. Quarter panel on drivers side took a pretty good hit. He went 8.30@163 on that pass.
