Here is a video a friend put together of the last outing for T Bolt. This is about Ruff and Reddy which is a C Altered that used to run here in Michigan The owner driver was Ron Vochaska and he was a good local racer. The car had a fuel injected 327 that they shifted about 9 grand. Ron had not been to the drag races for 35 years and has spent his time since then running cirle tracks as a car owner. He has been quite successful at stock car racer. He has raised a family that has both drag raced and stock car racing.

Some great old pictures start the video with his old Ford coupe and winds up with him driving T Bolt. We had a blast doing this. Four people drove her that day! Enjoy!

Great video. I love watching old race footage. I've raced at 131 but it was only 3 or 4 years ago.

The Beatles suck!

Everything else is great. I really like the still moment with the thumbs up. As much as I loved the old school, I was really taken bu surprise by that T/A! :eek:

Dom for being a muscian you have no idea why the differant sound tracks were used on this video. Its not about the Beatles. Its about the guy featured in the video and the music is correct!:)
