Default Cordova/Howie results

The Gibb/Harrell camaro of Howie's ran three good passes at Cordova last night, with a best time of 9.82@135 mph. It was most impressive, and got a lot of,"is that the real thing" questions. Only casualty was some windshield chrome. Mr. Howie is in need of a novicane enema, to get the smile off his face. Pics to follow later as it's now 1am.

Still trying to get the pics to Bruce. The new camera works great, but sending pics is way different. We'll get em there.

Looks like a good time was had by all.

Next time you go to Eddyville with it Kim, give me a call or send me a message WITH ENOUGH NOTICE so that I can plan for it and I will come down with my stepladder and camera and take some pic's of you going down the track at Eddyville. The staff there will let me set up right by the track there with my stepladder with their track photographer.
