Bruce,
No, however Jim`s amazing LS6 needs to be featured in the sYc -Members Rides. I am hoping that Jim decides to enter his LS6 in my 1970 Chevelle Display at the 2011 MCACN`s.

Great pictures Dan. I will try to get some up later. I had a great time also and can't wait to do it again next year. It was good seeing you, everyone I talked to and the great variety of cars. Thanks to Rick Pauley for coming over and lending a helping hand with Jerry and me on my carb issue.

Thanks Sam. My best pass was
[email protected]. That's the quickest ET so far but the car REALLY needs some gears. I did have a 109.52 on the 12.98 run which is the fastest MPH for the car.
The 3.73's with 28" tall tires are not working real good with the small in motor. I was going through the traps at only 5200rpm. I also was not trying to leave too hard off the line, I don't want to break anything.
I made 9 passes. 2 of them I missed a gear <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/blush.gif the current shifter still needs more work <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/mad.gif. Other than those two bad runs the car was very consistant. 12.90, 12.96, 12.98, 13.00, 13.12, 13.14 and 13.15.

Thats really good Kurt. Consistent! I think .56's would really do that car justice. 12.50's all day I bet, maybe even a little better.

Thanks for the pics Dan! Looks like a great time! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif
As always, great to spend time with old friends, and meet new ones. Mix in some really cool cars, many doing their thing on the drag strip, does not get any better then that.
Thanks to RT 66 Raceway for allowing us to spend the day at their facility. Talk about big time, that place is unreal. The first time I pulled from beneath the tower and saw the track, stadium seating etc, overwhelming. The staff was very courteous and kept things running smoothly, hats off to them.
Thanks to Dennis Barker and Steve Bimbi with NickeyChicago, Bob Ashton with MCACN and Tamri with MK Insurance who provided food, drinks and other assistance when needed.
Of course thanks to everyone who attended, hope each and everyone, whether racing, showing or just watching, had a good time.
A couple of highlights for me, one, of course watching Rob and Jon go head to head in the ’69 and 2010 Cameras, and two, one of the last races of the day, Jim Parks going up against Howie’s hired gun in Kim’s Gibb Camaro. Though both were told not to go under 10.00ET, we all knew what was about to happen. As Jim’s car shot out of the hole, so did Kim’s car with the frontend in the air. As it settled down, we watched as both drivers hit their shiftpoints, running side by side. As they crossed the line, the boards lite up with a 9.64 to a 9.98.
A couple of posts have mentioned SCR15. Well, thanks to the great turnout of cool cars, both racing and in the show area, RT 66 has extended an invitation for us to return in 2012. What is really neat about this, in 2012 both the SCR and RT 66 will be celebrating their 15th anniversaries, and RT 66 would like to do some sort of nostalgia event(s) to commemorate this milestone.

Great News Tom. I can't tell you how much it hurt to know I couldn't make it this year. First time in 9 years I had to pass. It WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN!

The only consolation to the weekend was the time I spent yesterday at Central Illinois Dragway in Havana. The new management pulled out some stops with a true nostalgia day featuring the Nostalgia Super Stock guys and a Special Two-outta-three Match Race between the Midwest Legends: Arnie Beswick and Dick Messino. Great racing, superior showmanship, and as Tom said above, ... Good Times with Good Friends. To cap off the night, Arnie, Dick, and all the NSS guys filed past the crowd on the return road and saluted the crowd, with Arnie standing on the golf cart shouting, "Thanks For Coming Out to see us". That man is a Class Act!

I was lucky enough to be paired up with Tom in Red Alert towards the end of the afternoon. I was driving a black 70 Chevelle and Tom apparently had a problem and didn't make a full pass. Did anyone happen to get a photo of the two of us lined up together ?
And thanks to the Clary's for putting on the event. Cooler weather would be nice next year, though <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif

Jim,
It was a pleasure to meet you and your family. You are definitely the right person to own your car as you have cared for its originality the way I would.
Had a lot of fun meeting a few of the members here.
It was a nice show and I thought the weather was pretty decent for this time of year.
Thanks for posting the pics Dan and Kurt. Glad I could be of help on your carb Kurt.

Just getting back into town but we had an absolute blast - sorry that we had to go around 2:30 to make a baseball tournament in the Dells, wanted to hang around after racing but could not. Definitely worth the time we spent there. Great group of people, great track, great cars, and great fun. Can't wait for next year.
Thank you to the Clary's for organizing a wonderful event.

Yes he did Bill - several in fact, maybe 5 or 6. Best was the last one of the day @ 15.3x. Traction/shifter limited......plus that is not the same short block from back inthe 80's.
Dave (he came up too) and I never knew that back in the day Eddie never let anyone (including my Dad) drive that car so believe it or not this was his very first time taking that car down the 1/4 mile. Priceless memories for us. I'll post some pics tonight or tomorrow, we were away all weekend.

I want to add my thanks to the Clary family for hosting SCR 14 Reunion and pairing it with some fine 1/4 mile experience at Route 66 Raceway. This was my first trip to Route 66 but I'll sure be back for SCR 15.
Thanks much for giving the pure stock cars the chance to be there !! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/youguysrock.gif
Rt 66 Raceway's follow up.

Neat!
Thanks again Tom for all your work - did not get a chance to thank you in person before we left as you were busy racin'.
Jake
Really looks like a great time at the new location! I would love to make it out next year. How was Thursday night? That is usually my favorite part.
Does anyone have pics of this '65 here?

Yes I did, and I never missed a gear all day--Cousin Eddie would have been proud.

Kim just sent me the video of the last run. I'll see if I can figure out how to make it work here. Hang on!
Well, it ain't what I hoped for but click on the pic below and it works.
