Supercar Reunion #8

**sYc** · #1 01-08-2005, 04:44 AM

Been working on the Supercar Reunion this afternoon.

As in the past, I have made arrangements for the Collinsville Holiday Inn to serve as the host hotel, the show to be at the Collinsville Gateway Center and drag racing at nearby Gateway International.

Thursday, Sept. 1, 2005- meet and greet in hotel parking lot. This has become an event in its self. Lots of beer, snacks and BS. And, first chance to see the supercars.

Friday, Sept. 2, 2005-drag racing, move-in for indoor show, banquet. As usual, we will have a a couple of special guests (TBA) on hand to fill us in on how it was in the "good old days".

Saturday, Sept. 3, 2005-indoor supercar show and outdoor musclecar crusie-in. As we did last year, we have reserved all of the available space at the center, and besides filling the center hall with supercars, we are working on a special display or two.

This year at the track, we hope to add and/or expand a couple of things.
1. Yenko Deuce Shootout #2, open to all 1970 Yenko/COPO Deuces.
2. Nostalgia drag car shootout, for vintage drag cars.
3. It looks like the Factory stock/FAST guys will be attending again this year.
4. TBA. Stay tuned.

As he did last year, Bob McClurg, a freelance photographer, will be attending SCR8. So far, Bob's handy work at SCR7 has appeared in Chevy Rumble and Drag Racer Magazine, with coverage of the event scheduled to be in the March issue of Super Chevy, and several cars to be in the various issues of Super Chevy's Nova, Chevelle and Camaro bi-annual publications.

Will be fun to see if Marlin, or another Deuce owner can get the BIG trophy away from Frank.

Thinking about another big race gives me the gitters.

I've been waiting for this announcement!!

Frankie my friend, it's 2005 and your reign as The Dragging Deuce King is over

Time to start talking trash for the Deuce Shootout at SCR8. BTW; Neal is coming with me as my engine tuner

A word of advice though, Tommy K is bringing his Wallace a/t deuce, it's stock, it's fast, and he's got the Englishtown Raceway Park timeslips to prove it. So, we better start chasing the 13.90's, like now

All deuce owners in attendance, you need to bring your stuff to the line, it is something you can't put into words - it's that cool. Nowhere else will you get a chance to line up against other deuces - your pick of 12-15 of them!

The SCR8 Deuce Shootout - don't miss it.

As Fun as it is to watch all the cars race,it was even cooler to see literally everyone who frequents this site hanging around the starting line/bleachers.
That's the place to get acquainted.

If my Duece is done I'm gonna have it tuned by Grumpy ...

Let me under your hood again Frankie, this time I'll fix your carb

On a serious note; I'm really glad your H2O pump hung in there, and didn't grenade on you. I'm also happy that you were able to enlist some folks to get you back together, wouldn't have been nearly as much fun if we didn't have our showdown - even if you beat me!
