BKH;
Who dropped and who joined??
I was originally planning to go this afternoon, but vacation days are limited so I'm leaving as early as I can Friday morning. Hope to get there around 8:00 a.m. when they open.

I don't like the Atlas wheels on my car, I don't think they go very well with the Gobi Beige, and the rears have a little too much offset. I put Polyglas F70-14's on them, and I can barely put a finger between the wheel lip and the tire. They may have even rubbed a little bit last night when I mini-launched it on a test run. They will look appropriate for this show, but then they come off!

WOW !! What a SHOW!! I want to thank Brian for getting all these Great cars together for us to see.And a SPECIAL congradulations on the Award for Largest Club Participation.

WOW is a good way to describe the US York 30 show. The Supercar Registry had 13 cars in attendance. We were awarded the club participation award. A special thanks to everyone that brought out their Super Cars. One of the highlights of the show was without a doubt Ed Hedrick. He won the Super Stock Championship in 1969 with his Yenko/Jenkins prepared Yenko Camaro. What a great person he is. He shared a ton of information about his car with us. He was happy to sign anything that our group asked him to. Just by luck the new Supercar Registry banner was diplayed at the autograph table. All the Chevrolet drag greats were happy to sign it. Malcom Durham, Grumpy Jenkins, Bruce Larson, Ed Hedrick, Mrs. Dave Strickler, Linda Vauhn, and Jungle Pam. This along with our trophy and items from this show will be on display at the Supercar Reunion Show. Ed Hedrick may attend as well for a Q@A. The amount of rare iron in the building was mind blowing. Altered wheel base Hemi's T-bolts, Z11's and many other great Super Stock and vintage rails, not to mention the amount af great cars in the cruise area. The show is signed for 5 more years. They wants us back! You have a year to get ready. We will put together a group for next year, any one interested yet?...BKH

This show was awesome!! The best day was Friday, watching all the 'old school' cars come in, kicking back cleaning the cars, harassing each other [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

It was nice to meet some more members of the board, 68l30, and John Hauer, among others. The highlite of the show was definitely talking with Ed Hedrick - what a wealth of info on the events from back in the day.

There were some good vendors there, BKH and I picked some cool issues of Drag News and National Dragster with '67 Yenko, Harrell and Deuce ad's in them. I also picked up Speed and Supercar Oct. '68 with a '68 Motion Camaro on the cover for our buddy Mark Hassett!!

Definitely a show to visit next year.

Sounds like a very nice show.
Marlin,how did your Nova show..with those wheels?
Anyone take any digital pictures?

**YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY** · #20 07-15-2002, 07:11 PM

I don't like 'em, they are coming off. The other guys liked them, but I have to get different back wheels since the offset causes them to hit the quarterlips. If I find a set to match the fronts, and can get them polished up nicely, maybe I'll try them again, or maybe some XT's, or maybe some old school Cragars, or.... They looked good for this show, nobody I ran around with back in the day had the same offset wheels all the way around!
