Hack how are you putting up with John? He must be terrible company knowing that he does not have a car to punish. I bet he didn't help with the spilled coffee either. And no one to talk to, just the web site. Hang in there guys and please be safe.

Hack and I are on the road headed back to Michigan. We left a little before the event was over and managed to beat the football traffic. We will be home on Sunday afternoon with no problem. Have had a great time this trip even though I have no car to race. Seeing all of my friends more than made up for it!:)

For those of you that have not come to SSHS all I can tell you is you are missing a great time and missing make new friends! The friendship is whats this is all about.:) For the rest of us that broke berfore hand next year will bring the fun back! We had Marauder guys make first ever runs and others itching to try out the new found S/C power! :burnout: Start planning now for next year! Sherman you owe me a race when we get our acts together!:beer:

Hack, can't wait to see your pics and videos, they are always winners. I haven't opened up my block yet so don't know what the furture holds. Oh well, see you all later.

John, hope you had a safe trip back. It was great to see you again. Thanks for all you advise on Saturday;). After 5 yrs of going to" John's School of Racing" it's starting to pay off. I did make one more pass at the end with Gary and it ran 12.178 @ 112.63 w/ a 60 of 1.810. The car just keep getting faster all day long. Thanks again for all your help and friendship

We missed you and Chris too. Hopefully you'll be back together and even better for next year.
