Really great pictures Bruce! Jack/Tony Antron/Courtney are all great people! Jack is the only driver I know of that stands in front of the rope to meet and sign autographs. Thanks for the Enders pictures as well. She is ready this year to do some Summit damage!!!

You and Holly have a great time and don't forget to get some new postcards of your favorite drivers.

Glad you got some pictures of the Stock and SuperStock guys.

Bruce -- FS1 or ESPN needs to hire you so they can get it right. Is that track near the old PIR on the southwest side? I have raced there along with BeeLine back in the day. Johnny Loper and his Little Hoss gasser was hot then. Craig

Hi Chuck, we'll try to check it out today. Everyone was running super quick (way under their dial in's) due to the dry air (12 grains is what I've heard)

Thanks Bruce......Would be great (for me) if you posted pic of CODY LANE. After crewing for Jeff and Cody
Lane for every NHRA race the past 3 years (at my own expense) I decided to back off some this year...as they
have other "friends" who travel with and help out also. Working for Jeff Lane gives me a chance to be
a part of something I could NEVER have done myself ....WIN !!!!!!!!!!!! LOOK at his pit, LOOK at his operation

Most casual fans dont have a clue as to how much dedication, time, money etc etc it takes to be a
Sportsman WINNING Racer. The NHRA treats the Sportsman Racers like "2nd rate citizens" for the most part.
The $$$ payout is minimal and the expenses are huge. Look around at any NHRA National event and you'll see
the Huge amount of personal (including security overkill) that the NHRA pays.

Next week at the Divisonal Race, those grandstands will be EMPTY, as Wild Horse Pass Raceway will have done
zero advertising.........yet most all of the same Sportsman Cars will be there including Top Alcohol Dragster and Funny car which put on a good show...

Anyway, THANKS !!!!!!!!!!

Same back here Chuck. NO interest in Sportsman Racing around here. Stock, SuperStock and Comp are dinosaurs it seems. I bet NHRA would like to see Pro Stock go also. Fill it in with Pro Mod/Top Sportsman or something like that. Good luck out there.
