Default end of year events

Goodguys Pleasanton Autumn Get-Together 2012

Saturday morning we loaded up at 6am to get to the event early and as I rolled in my freinds Kyle (Kyle Newman from Newman Car Creations) and Deanna (Deanna Mareango from Hotchkis) were already parked and getting ready for the day so I pulled in and we started getting ready


after the morning runs we were all fast!


so we go to the end of day race off, and the standings change

Kyle Newman with Newman Car Creations 55 chevy takes 1st
Frasier from CARS in his 2nd Gen Camaro takes 2nd
and myself (Rodney Prouty) in my 1968 camaro takes 3rd
Time to pack it up for the night


Sunday morning, headed back and the throwout bearing breaks in my camaro, I get to Goodguys and I get asked if I will just stick with yesterdays times or race, and I will race until the car has to be towed, and once again we are back and ready to battle, getting ready, talking about the tightness of the track, were can we pick up a 10th or a 100th



again it comes down to the last runs of the day!!! an Kyle opened up a good 1st place time and I get pushed down to 4th when a 2002 corvette gets me in the end, heres the end of the weekend time for us


Ok Im in the middle of my end of the year last 3 race events, 1 down 2 to go, wish me and my budget home garage built car some luck!

I’m not the smartest guy at the track … but when he goes home … I’m still there testing, tuning, learning & getting faster.
