Reid,Thanks for taking some pictures.I usually go but this year I am working today and cleaning the church bus for a missions trip next week.As usual it will be a great time there.
Stop over and see Chev454(Rob) and give him some NoDoz so he is awake on the tree. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

Dennis,You must be a mind reader as I was thinking the same thing.What a slacker!! You would think my priorities would be in the right place.Work today,be a security guard for our churches VBS tonight,then the wife and I and another couple are doing the bus inside and out to leave at 4am sunday morning for a week long missions trip to northeast OH.
What was I thinking??? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

What a great time! Sometimes, things just fall together. The #4 qualifier put a clinic on "How to read a tree" and fed the competition the tree "roots first" to come up on top!

I tell you what! It was great to watch. Your light made Bob jump extra hard to catch ya and he lost some ET with tire spin. Great race and a great light. Very nice job to take home the trophy and the cash. Good weekend even though no records were set with the density altitude.

I always enjoy watching this event as it unfolds and would like to participate in it soon if my work schedule allows it.
All the owners who attend annually are heros in my eyes.
Thanks for posting pix/results.
