Scr23

[sYc]

Though we won’t have the dates set for SCR23 for a while, the event will be around the same time as in the past, late July, utilizing the same venues, Beech Bend Raceway Park and the National Corvette Museum.

Something new for SCR23, will be a special display or two. The Corvette Museum has graciously agreed to allow us to park a few cars in the main corridor of the museum. This will allow us room for more cars without crowding the main hall.

Being the 50th anniversary of the 1970 Yenko Deuce (and COPO Novas) we are inviting all owners of these cars to attend SCR23. As we did several years ago, would be really cool to get one of every color.

For easy access to our Facebook page and update coverage of the SCR go to www.supercarreunion.com

That’s great Tom..The area that we are getting is outside in the Boulevard area it is still inside the building and it runs from the Corvette café down to the Corvette Museum the logistics tells us it holds roughly 20 cars we would love to have a display of two different models of cars 10 on each side of the aisle they are nice enough to give us this area and they are going to remove the Corvettes that are being delivered and are on display it should be exciting I would love to see The area that we are getting is outside in the boulevard area it is still inside the building and it runs from the Corvette café down to the Corvette Museum the logistics tells us it holds roughly 20 cars we would love to have a display of two different models of cars 10 on each side of the aisle they are nice enough to give us this area and they are going to remove the Corvettes that are being delivered and are on display it should be exciting I would love to see all 10 colors of the Yenko Deuce cars

[ORIGLS6]

Tom/Doug, please correct me if I'm wrong but as I understand it, we're hoping for July 23, 24 & 25. We have tentatively reserved TWO weekends at the Corvette Museum while we await a confirmed date with Beech Bend Raceway. Doug has also received a note from the host hotel, the Holiday Inn University Plaza, so it appears things are headed in the right direction for another great weekend.
As Tom and Doug stated above, the National Corvette Museum has offered to expand the area inside to allow us to host even more cars inside the building. The Boulevard area puts us dead center in the main traffic area for maximum exposure to hundreds of people, and leads them directly to the banquet room where we've been for the past few years. We'll also still have the covered outdoor area around the banquet room as in the past.

Bowling Green is a great town, full of car-crazy folks and they've all been great to work with. It appears the SCR has found a long-term home and I couldn't be happier.
SCR 23, ..... here we come!

[big gear head]

I can't wait! I've been trying to round up some more cars to attend. I know of several that would fit right in the muscle car class, but I have to convince the owners to show up. '66 Chevelle SS396 all original drive train, '67 Corvette 427 435HP, '69 Corvette 427 390 HP, 426 Hemi Super Bee and some more. I'm making some more changes to mine over the winter and it should be into the 10s this time.

[Copo_Cartel]

Dennis ...that is correct. We have 2 dates reserved and they are the last 2 weekends in July...when we confirm with the race track then we will choose the date. And we already have our first commitment...A red Deuce coming from New York !!!!

[Kim_Howie]

Great

[Ryan1969Chevelle]

Ryan, they let me in. I'm sure they would let you in too.

[hurstL78]

Great news! Just when I thought this event couldn’t get any better. You guys add a Deuce gathering to top it off! I’m already looking forward to it!

This is already shaping up to be a great show. Tom, Doug and the rest of the SCR team have graciously allowed me to cook again for the Thursday night meet n greet. But please don't come for the food. Thursday night is a great time to sit around and meet the people that make this hobby what it is.. the menu will be released once the dates are locked in. Looking forward to seeing everyone!

[big gear head]

Great! You were missed this year.

When the event was in Joliet for a couple of years my lowly Malibu 400 was welcomed with open arms and I had fun participating. Great event and even greater people. I need to get down there one of these years.

[A12pilot]

Hmmm....would a Crusty Cuda be welcomed??:hmmm: Can Mopars come to this event since we’d steal all the thunder from everyone? Do any of you people like Mopar people even though we like you GM people?? Is this too many questions to ask this early in the morning without another cup of coffee?!?!:dunno:

This event intrigues me:scholar:. Where’s my magnifying glass emoji at?!?

Page two!! goggles. That’s what I needed!!!:laugh:

Cheers:beers:
Dave

[sYc]

Mopars more than welcome, but I got to warn you, watch out for that pesky Corvair. LOL

[Copo_Cartel]

Dave....I love Mopars....I put my Hemi Cuda down the track last year and made a few passes. It’s a great time with awesome people and a blast to go down the track. Don’t let Ken fool you... that little rambler was a beast !!! Ran in the 8’s.

[big gear head]

Dave, it would be great to see you at the SCR.

[cook_dw]

Dang it. If Dave is gonna come all the way from the Lone Star then I gotta make the 1hr drive up.. Might even bring a car.... Maybe..:hmmm:

[Copo_Cartel]

Let’s go RGR

[A12pilot]

Thanks guys! :biggthumpup: Welp...I’m a gonna have to do this now. :biggthumpup::cool2: The motto for this year’s venue will be “Rollin’ with Rust”.:hmmm:

It’ll be a good summer excursion! Doug, sending you a message....

[cook_dw]

I haven’t got past machine work yet.. But that’s being worked on. Gotta order a cam, lifters, shaft mounted rockers, etc etc... :dunno: Might be ready SCR25..��

[bbbentley]

I am looking forward to being a competitor this coming year. That is my goal. Gotta beat Cook! It will be the classic showdown Cook’s mouse against my rat “Ratty Rat”! Hope he is up to it? It will be the most old looking, old school showdown! My tetanus shot is up to date!

[A12pilot]

Then the winner of that showdown will face "Super Dave" in the Crusty Cuda! :biggthumpup:

Three Hundred and forty cubic inches of American horsepower that will leave all contenders in the dust! And by dust I literally mean it since I'll look like the old Mineke Muffler commercials where they have the car running down the road with the muffler and tailpipe falling out of the back of it! Or was that Midas mufflers commercials? :hmmm:

And if you manage to steer around that automotive obstacle course, you'll be be blinded by the dust from the rust pieces falling off the quarters that I never fixed!:hmmm::cool2:

Bring it!!:3gears::3gears::3gears:

Cheers:beers:
Dave

[Mr. Chevy]

That’s true...Freddie will be in the 10’s this year

We are working on room rates at the Holiday Inn... there is a golf course next door to the hotel if anyone shows up early and want to enjoy a round.

[69 Post Sedan]

Karen and I will be there this year......always a good time. Oh, and the food is good too. I’ll try to make a pass or two with the Chevelle.

[ORIGLS6]

Something new this year from our friend Freddie Byars. Joining the COPO Pete Shootout Trophy created by Shawn Huffman will be the new Muscle Car Shootout Trophy created and donated by Freddie.
As with the COPO Pete Trophy, the winner will have their name attached to the trophy and will retain ownership and bragging rights for one year. Then they must return the trophy to the following SCR and either try to defend their title or relinquish it to the new Shootout Winner.
Our sincere Thanks to Freddie for his creativity and generosity, as well as his continued support and friendship. You've all seen what Freddie is working on to improve the performance of his Camaro so I'm thinking he plans to take that trophy back home with HIS name attached as the First Muscle Car Shootout Champion.

[ORIGLS6]

Something NEW for SCR23.


Due to the unrivaled popularity of a certain Blue Corvair at SCR22, the SCR team, along with the invaluable help of our friend Andy Snetselaar, will be expanding the program for 2020. Beech Bend Raceway Park has agreed to incorporate an Autocross course for everyone's entertainment. (THANK YOU Andy!)



All the details aren't quite finalized but the wheels are definitely turning, and in the right direction.
This should be FUN !

[Xplantdad]

Okay...now Kasey is going to have to attend again! :beers:

[Copo_Cartel]

I see it now ....Kasey does double duty....down the 1320’ and around the track .

[Copo_Cartel]

We are also providing free admission to the Corvette Museum starting at 5 pm on Friday

[TomN]

The people at this given address and phone number don't know anything about the special SCR23 Code

They wanted a 3 digit code

I gave them the on site contact name and that didn't help either

*Holiday Inn University Plaza , Bowling Green KY (270-745-0088)*

Oh well .... I did get a room booked for $122.55 per night after it was all over ... lol

[livettes]

Sorry for the confusion. What are you bringing Tom?
Jamie

[TomN]

If I can get things together and get it all done .... I would like to try and bring the 1969 SS 396 Chevelle I bought recently. 396/375 Turbo-400. But right now a good lawn mover might our run it.

[A12pilot]

Oh man, that's awesome! Just printed out the registration and will send that your way Dougaroonie!:biggthumpup:

So, can the Crusty Cuda partake in this autocross or is it only for these so called Yenko Stinger people?:hmmm: Is a helmet required? NHRA 8-pt rollcage? Brembo 17" disks?

Man, this will be fun!

Cheers:beers:
Dave

[Copo_Cartel]

The rules are relaxed....helmet required....inspections are very very minimal. All cars/drivers have full access to both tracks ...autocross and 1320’. We suggest to follow NHRA rules for anything faster than 11.50. But everything is laid back

[big gear head]

Helmet is required for drag racing, even if you are slow. Don't know about the autocross.

[69 Post Sedan]

I just booked my room for Thursday and Friday nights. They didn’t know anything about the discount. They have it on record for when it is in effect, I will get the discount.

Either way......I’ll be there!!!!!

Kurt

[big gear head]

I hope you get to run this year. It was disappointing to see you having trouble last time you were there. I think it was your clutch that was causing problems?

Yes, after 9 years, it finally had enough! lol The one I have in there now has quite the “bite”, so I’ll have to take it a little easy off the line.

[Copo_Cartel]

The hotel will honor all discounts per our agreement...they are fixing the code from 5 digits as requested down to 3 digits. We will keep you posted.

[Copo_Cartel]

Kurt....I look forward to our beer/cheese parking lot visit !!!!! We had a great visit at the NEOCC show

[A12pilot]

Thanks Doug, but this "We suggest to follow NHRA rules for anything faster than 11.50. But everything is laid back" just to be clear, that's in strictly seconds and not minutes and seconds, right?:dunno:3gears.gif:rolleyes::p

All in fun....

Cheers:beers:
Dave

[Copo_Cartel]

That’s true Dave ...I need to clarify that . Most of my passes down the 1320’ starts out like this ...hold my beer and watch this.

[ORIGLS6]

The hotel will honor all discounts per our agreement...they are fixing the code from 5 digits as requested down to 3 digits. We will keep you posted.


I just received a text from Doug. The Holiday Inn has fixed the issue.


The Code you must use is the same as last year; SCR

[big gear head]

I've got the whole day to work on my car, but none of my parts have arrived, so it looks like the day will be wasted. I can't wait to get this thing back together and do some testing. Looking forward to July!!!

[JBALL]

Room is booked! Menu for the Thursday Night "Meat N Greet" will be out shortly.

[ORIGLS6]

UPDATE !

With all the dismal reports of postponements, reschedules and cancellations we see every day, we would like to offer a bit of hope for our Summer activities.


At this point, SCR 23 is STILL ON!


First: We're happy to announce that, with the help of our great friend and long-time supporter Mr. Chuck Hanson, we will welcome Mr. Bill Tichenor, VP of Marketing at HOLLEY, as our Guest Speaker at the Friday evening Banquet. Bill and Chuck have been friends for over 25 years and Bill has been with HOLLEY for at least that long. Based in Bowling Green, HOLLEY has been a sponsor of previous SCRs , a huge sponsor at most events at Beech Bend and Bill has a wealth of experience and knowledge in our hobby. This should prove to be an interesting and enjoyable evening.


Another positive note: we have extended the Early Registration Discount indefinitely! We understand everyone's uncertainty about their plans for the near future so the Early Registration Fee of $150 will be honored up to the date of the event. See the Registration Form posted here earlier.


You may have heard The National Corvette Museum is currently closed but they have a schedule for reopening and we receive regular updates from them as this progresses.


Obviously we're at the mercy of the State of Kentucky and our venues (the Holiday Inn University Plaza, Beech Bend Raceway Park and the National Corvette Museum), but as of today we have NOT received word from anyone indicating a possibility of cancellation.


We're ALL looking forward to that time when this is in our rear-view mirrors, but until then let's all keep positive thoughts and do what we can to stay healthy. We hope to see you all in Bowling Green in July. THANK YOU!

[livettes]

This event is always one of the highlights of my year. It will likely be the first car event most of us will be able to attend in 2020. I for one am looking forward to this reunion with friends more than ever!
Jamie

[ORIGLS6]

More good news today regarding SCR 23. Things continue to look up as we draw closer to our date.

[Copo_Cartel]

[ORIGLS6]

More good news. Beech Bend Raceway Park is opening this weekend with limited attendance restrictions.
Although some of their major events have peen postponed or cancelled for 2020, SCR 23 is still on track.
Stay Safe; Stay Healthy, and we'll see you in July! :biggthumpup::biggthumpup:

[big gear head]

Is the T shirt ready yet?

[Copo_Cartel]

Jamie is working on it as we speak and I think we finalized everything on it as of yesterday

[ORIGLS6]

We're only five weeks away from SCR 23 and everything is looking GREAT! Covid19 restrictions are easing up and the reservations coming in are starting to reflect that.
Here's where we stand at the moment:

The Host Hotel, the Holiday Inn University Plaza, is preparing things as they have in the past. The Thursday evening "Meat 'n Greet" meal is under control, guided by Mr. Jason Ball. There will be porta-pottys on the grounds in the paddock area and security is provided for trailer parking on Thursday and Friday nights. The Holiday Inn has extended the pre-registration date AND made a few more rooms available in the SCR block.

Beech Bend Raceway Park is open and ready to welcome us on Friday, July 24th. Not only will we have the drag strip for the day, we're also ready to host the first SCR Autocross for the YENKO STINGER Corvair group.

The National Corvette Museum is open and will have plenty of room for our Banquet on Friday evening and the Indoor Show on Saturday, July 25th.
The National Corvette Museum has also arranged for us to have additional space in their Boulevard Area to display the Feature Cars of SCR 23, The YENKO STINGERs and the YENKO DEUCEs.

We have our Guest Speaker for the Friday Banquet and this week we have confirmed our SCR 23 Honoree. That person will be announced very shortly.

The event shirt is at the printer and we'll give you a glimpse of that when we announce our 2020 Honoree.

If you haven't made your room reservations yet please take note:
If you call during the day, ask to speak to Seth, the General Manager. Some of you may have experienced some difficulty previously but a couple of people called this week and their total time on the phone with Seth was under three minutes! The direct number at the hotel is 1-270-745-0088. Again, ask to speak to Seth, the General Manager and be sure to mention code SCR.

Time is drawing near so make your plans for what may be the First Real Event of 2020. Safe practices are always a good idea so be considerate, stay healthy and we hope to see you all very soon!

[Copo_Cartel]

The new T-shirt is very cool and I can tell several people are excited about the event and I am as well I look forward to seeing everybody and having great food from Jason

[ANDY M]

I'm in!
How many cars do we have so far?

We are two weeks away! Here is the menu for the Thursday night meat n greet. Looking froward to seeing everyone.

[Xplantdad]

Looks yummy!

[big gear head]

Our governor made it mandatory to wear a mask in public for the next 30 days, so bring one with you. It sucks, and I don't agree with it, but that's how it is.

Hi folks,

Where is my Graeter’s? Strict Dr. orders, I must have Black Raspberry Chip!...but will be grateful just to be fed. Thanks, Jason

[bbbentley]

Starting Rich??

[Mr. Chevy]

Starting Rich??

First they say not to wear masks, now wear masks, social distance etc... etc....

Oh and lets tell people they can't go into Churches to worship but it's ok to protest in mass numbers on city streets.

I realize this is a real virus but I'm not "drinking the whole container of Kool Aid" here. It's a fact the numbers are being skewed.

Notice how this has become a major news topic again now that the protesting and rioting has subsided... LOL

Oh and lets tell people they can't go into Churches to worship but it's ok to protest in mass numbers on city streets.

I realize this is a real virus but I'm not "drinking the whole container of Kool Aid" here. It's a fact the numbers are being skewed.

Notice how this has become a major news topic again now that the protesting and rioting has subsided... LOL

Rich

I agree w you and now they are issuing fines if you don’t wear masks. Next they will tell you what job you can have, how much money you can make, oh yeah defund police but you can’t buy guns. My Dad(rip)and many on this site didn’t fight for this! Sorry rant over, just getting tired of it

[Pusher_Man]

Hey guys, the original owner of my Hugger Orange COPO is wanting to come and join us again this year, like he did 2 years ago when he was reunited with HIS car after 40+ years...talk about a cool moment. I still have the video of when he walked up to her, getting all misty eyed!

Freddie’s right about the mask requirement. Are there any other restrictions that are being put in place for the weekend that we may need to know about? Will the banquet be more spaced out, etc.?

Many thanks in advance

[Mr. Chevy]

This is from the Kentucky Government Website. This info is most current and dated 07/09/2020.

Kentucky’s new executive order requires Kentuckians to wear face coverings under several circumstances for the next 30 days. The order will be evaluated during that time to determine any additional steps or extension.

The executive order states that face coverings will be required:

“While inside, or waiting in line to enter, any: retail establishment; grocery store; pharmacy; hair salon/barbershop; nail salon/spa; tattoo parlor; child care facility; restaurant or bar (when not seated and consuming food or beverage); health care setting, or; any other indoor public space in which it is difficult to maintain a physical distance of at least six feet from all individuals who are not members of that person’s household;

“While waiting for or riding on public transportation or paratransit, or while riding in a taxi, private car service, or ride-sharing vehicle, or driving any of the above while customers are present; or

“While in outdoor public spaces in which the person cannot maintain a physical distance of six feet from all individuals who are not members of the person’s household and is not otherwise covered by previously issued guidance.”

There are several exemptions to the order, including children who are 5 or younger and any person with a disability, or a physical or mental impairment, that prevents them from safely wearing a face covering. To read the executive order and more exemptions, click here.

[Mr. Chevy]

I'm an "Ohioan" visiting Kentucky for the Super Car Reunion so I guess I am exempt from wearing a mask. LOL

Rich

[A12pilot]

Fear not, Rich!! I will be making “official” Super Car Reunion masks and they’ll be available for sale at an introductory price of $1.00 (plus a $14.95 administration fee:hmmm:) Details to come.....:biggthumpup::bs:

Cheers:beers:

I'm putting the 5.29s in the rear end today and going to Beech Bend tonight to see how this thing runs, as long as the weather stays nice. This is the first time this year that I've had a chance to take the car to the track. The transmission is finally working right. I hope everything stays together!

[wheelhop]

Looks like Freddie is the "home town" favorite now!

[A12pilot]

Go Freddie GO!!!! Looking forward to seeing that machine in a few weeks!:biggthumpup:

Cheers:beers:
Dave

[big gear head]

Looks like Freddie is the "home town" favorite now!

To be the home town favorite I would have to be good, which I'm not. Maybe someday. Testing didn't go very well. The car is slower and the driver stinks. Someone should fire him.

[ANDY M]

SCR is one week from Friday.
If anybody is coming through Columbus, I need a ride. My ride has to leave early, and I don't want to ride in my car on the trailer.
Please let me know if I be a passenger.
Thanks, Andy

ps this pandemic thing sucks, I know people who have died from it. Let's keep the politics out of the site, please. We are all at risk, like it or not.
just my 2$

Thank You Tom! We all had tremendous respect for Jim and we're proud to say that Jim's son Keith and his family will be joining us in Bowling Green next week with their Rallye Green sYc Camaro.


Here's a teaser of the window decal honoring the Shockley family that will be available to those who participate on Race Day at Beech Bend.

I've been trying to get some local cars to show up, but I don't know if any of them will be there. A few 427 Vettes, some Boss 302 cars, 428 CJ, Hemi Super Bee, '66 SS Chevelle and some others, but nobody will commit.

[Alss]

Getting ready!

Got to LOVE a 1970 W30 Post Coupe, one of 120 made with a T400 Trans.

UPDATE !

And it's Good News.

Some of you may have heard that the Kentucky Governor tightened COVID restrictions lately. As of 5 PM today we received word that SCR 23 is considered a "Professional Event" and therefore exempt from the 'crowds of 10 or less' guideline. (And you all thought we were just a bunch of amateurs and hillbillies, didn't you!)

WE'RE STILL MOVING FORWARD!




With that good news comes some strong recommendations. We are asking everyone to PLEASE bring masks and be prepared to wear them. And, if possible, bring multiples in case you misplace one, or maybe some to share with friends.




Regardless of how you feel about the entire COVID 19 situation, social distancing, etc is just common sense and good old-fasioned respectful behavior.




So PLEASE, Stay Safe, Stay Healthy and we look forward to seeing everyone this weekend in Beautiful Bowling Green!

[Postsedan]

Will be cleaning and loading up Tuesday. Looking forward to my first time there.

Tom,

I know Chuck will be riding Shoot Gun with you the entire way down...RIP my Friend.

PS....Don`t overfill that Gas Tank... Wink, Wink :)

Have fun and Be Safe!

Dan

[big gear head]

The Hot Rod Reunion is probably the biggest event that Beech Bend has each year. It had been rescheduled for Aug 20-22. It was canceled today. I'm glad that we are still on.

[A12pilot]

And if you don’t have a mask, make sure to buy an Official Yenko.Net/MCACN calendar at the show which can do double duty as a face shield!:eek2: Yes, you won’t be able to see anything and nobody will recognize you,, but you vill be in compliance!:hmmm:

Looking forward to meeting a lot of you in person!

Cheers:beers:
Dave

[A12pilot]

Well, unexpected parental obligations crept up today impacting tomorrow’s events, so it looks like we have to skip the show. Parental obligations meaning I have to take care of my parents, but fear not! Luckily with this devastating news Doug has STILL decided that the show must go on!:3gears::rolleyes:

Have fun everyone! Post up pics!!!!:3gears::3gears::3gears:

Cheers:beers:
Dave

[big gear head]

That's very disappointing news. I hope everything is all right. I know all of us were looking forward to seeing you there.

[Mr. Chevy]

Dave, I hope your parents are alright.. Your a good man!! I know the feeling, I take care of my elderly mother...

Rich

[Postsedan]

Smart decision Dave. Family is always First :)

Even with my broken leg :(
I am driving my Mother in Law to the Hospital on Friday. Doing the right thing is the only thing that matters.

Dan

[bbbentley]

That's very disappointing news. I hope everything is all right. I know all of us were looking forward to seeing you there.

What he ^^^said, Dave. Real sorry for your circumstances. I was looking forward to meeting this site’s humor pilot.

[big gear head]

Is there a backup plan for the bar-b-q if it's raining?

[bbbentley]

Is there a backup plan for the bar-b-q if it's raining?

I’m grabbing my grub and heading for the trailer. That, or JB can bring the smoker into Holiday Inn’s lobby:no::shocked:

[big gear head]

It looks like the weather forecast is getting better. Maybe the rain is gone for a while.

[S10nova]

My phone weather channel app is showing sunny and maybe a stray shower or thunderstorm tomorrow.
What time will the track open/when will drag racing be going on etc..?
I've never been but have wanted to go for the past 2 or 3 yrs. This will be my first time.

[big gear head]

I believe the gate opens at 8 and runs start at 9 am.

[RSSSfan]

So my younger daughter was attending a safe driving school at the Corvette museum on Saturday, and we decided to come down the day before to tour the museum. Imagine my complete delight when I stumbled onto this! I was like a kid in a candy store. My only regret is that I missed the racing because frankly, I had no idea this was going on this weekend. I thought I would share a few pictures I snapped. Unfortunately, I don't see an icon allowing me to upload them.

[big gear head]

The weather was pretty good for race day. It was very hot and the air was not good for ETs, but it didn't rain until we were finished and back at the museum. There were a few cars that broke stuff, but no crashes this year, and everything that was damaged can be fixed easily. I'm sure that many pictures will be posted later. My GoPro decided that it was just too hot to work, so I didn't get any in car video of me missing 3rd gear this year.

There were several regulars that didn't make it this year. We missed Ken Barnhart, Dennis Crumby, Bob McClurg, the whole MASCAR team and several others. Covid 19 kept some of them from making it. I hope to see them next year.

[Salvatore]

Thanks for the update. Glad all went well.

[Copo_Cartel]

We had an awesome turn out and a lot of fresh faces with new cars that haven’t been seen before so it was a bigger turn out as we’ve had in several years I can’t believe how we had so many great new faces and everyone was safe and everybody had a Great time

[YenkoChevelle69]

I'd like to say thank you and tip my hat to each and every one of you who made SCR possible. What a fun and educational event. I'm already looking forward to next year! My wife and I had a great time.

Many thanks!

Shar (Orange 69 Chevelle outside)

[A12pilot]

That’s awesome guys!!! Count me in next year!!,

Cheers
Dave

[big gear head]

Thanks to all of the people who do all of the work to make this happen each year. Most of us just show up, have a good time and then go home, but don't know how much work it takes to get this together. You make it fun for us.

[Mr. Chevy]

The show and people were awesome, !! Very well organized... The drag strip was a "little" hot but was a fun time despite the heat...

One of the BEST car shows I have ever attended!! The Corvette Museum was very cool to tour...

I hope everyone made/makes it home safely......

Thanks to Tom Clary, Jamie Jarvis & Doug Perry...

Rich

[Postsedan]

Shar,

Thanks for all the pics....they were all Great!

You`re the Best!

Dan

[big gear head]

I wish we had a page with pictures of each person, their real name and their user name so that I would know who I'm seeing when I go to these events. I'm sure that I've met many people from this sight at SCR and MCACN, but didn't know who I was talking to.

[JBALL]

Had a fantastic time this weekend. Met some new folks and missed seeing some of the regulars. Congrats to Tom, Jamie, Doug, Cumby and everyone else involved behind the scenes. Great turn out under the circumstances. Time to rebuild the rear end again and get ready for SCR 24!

[Salvatore]

4.56's this time JB. Easier to turn those tires.

[Mr. Chevy]

Jason, thank you for the AWESOME BBQ Thursday night!!

Food was spectacular..

Rich

[big gear head]

Yes, Thanks Jason for the food. If you need help with that rear end let me know. You are going to need something stronger than that Yukon unit. You have my number.

If anyone has any videos posted to youtube or other places please let us know. I have no videos at all of my car and I have no idea how the car is working.

[Mr. Chevy]

Some videos uploaded to You Tube...

Phil Woj and I just having fun... Don't laugh at our ETs..... My reaction times were hideous. Been a long time since I "faced the tree" LOL Thanks to Van Hurst for the video.

https://youtu.be/y5u64Jwujpw

Nothing like a little Jimi Hendrix blasting through the 8 track going down the track.. I think Phil flipped me off before our race.... LOL Just kidding...

[Salvatore]

I see that BBBenny had yet another good day at the Track. Downing all competition with his LRC prepped B/MP Nova. Taking out all competition from across the Nation. Cutting good lites and then running the competition down at the big end. The Professors forte.

If anyone wants a " match race" we are taking bookings now. Bring on the Hemi's. I can see his B/MP record falling even further. Go Benny Go!


Thanks for the video's Sheriff Buford.

[big gear head]

I beat Benny with a lucky run in the first round, but he came back and got me the second time.

[Salvatore]

LRC Inc. was playing possum Freddie! LOL. Only kidding. You got a great car.

[big gear head]

Thanks, and like I said, it was a lucky run. I can't drive that well.

[Mr. Chevy]

Found another video of Jim Hanke and Jeff Losapio

One of these years I’m going to attend. The videos are great and thank you for sharing, but

[big gear head]

Our official photographer wasn't able to come this year. Hopefully someone else got some pictures. I didn't get any at all except for one that Jason sent me that he took of Benny with the trophy, and one that Bentley sent me of his car next to mine at the Corvette museum.

[Mr. Chevy]

Some photos I took.

[Salvatore]

Really a nice nova Rich.

Launching the Yenko Deuce. 10.24@127.

[big gear head]

Tom, were you the quickest car there this year?

[sYc]

Maybe, would be between me and Benny. Looks like he dialed at 10.46 for the shootout, but may have been sand bagging, you know how racers are. LOl

I wanted to run him, just for fun, but seems we were never in the lanes at the same time, and after the shootout, everyone was ready to get out of the heat and get to the museum. May happen though, as we talked about meeting somewhere, like the Columbus area, to race and just hang out.

I need to go his way some time this Fall and see what the mouse motor Deuce would do in some of that NE mineshaft air.

[J.Montini]

What is the story of the green 70s Camaro. I really enjoyed seeing this at Beech Bend. Custom fender flares.....day 2......wow!

[sYc]

1973, knew about the car for 20 years or so, purchased late last year from original owner. Tons of paperwork. Modified by Yenko then sold through Jay Kline. 427 CI with aluminum heads, beefed up 400 turbo trans, special 12 bolt rear, etc. Seems almost every part on the car has been modified, all documented.

A prototype, one of one, last Yenko BBC, only 2nd gen Yenko BBC, only BBC documented to have come with aluminum heads, etc.

Was looking for a Yenko for my grandson Drew to race, he loves it. Has a worn out SBC in it now, this Fall/Winter will put a aluminum headed in it.

[hiperf69]

First of all I would like to Thank all involved in this meet.
After a 9 hour drive and to be welcomed by everyone was just great!
Tom, the venue was great, Loved it!
Jason, food was the best “When’s the next cookout”
And to Doug and Jamie I had a great time and was able to meet a
Lot of faces to put names to.
So glad I asked you Doug what this show was like.
Know I didn’t have a car involved but would be glad
To help out with anything you guys might need in the future.
For anybody that would consider bringing a car my suggestion
Would be Don’t miss 2021 !!
Joe

[big gear head]

Those of you who were at the SCR this year probably know that I have a hard time finding 3rd gear. I put this in today to try and fix that problem. I'll get back to Beech Bend in a few weeks to see how it works out. Now I need to find one of those T handles with the button in the end for the line lock.

[Copo_Cartel]

Thanks for coming Joe and sharing all of your cool parts we appreciate your knowledge and your participation this year

[Hawkeye]

Any chance someone has a list of cars that attended?

Thanks

[bbbentley]

Any word on a date set for SCR 24? Hopefully back at Beech Bend? Thanks.

[Copo_Cartel]

Not yet. Shooting for the last 2 weekends in July as usual if possible .

[Copo_Cartel]

Our dates for this years Super Car Reunion will be announced very soon. Stay Tuned

Anxiously waiting.....23rd can't make it / 30th can make it.
