It was my first and I'll be back. Wish I could make it today even at the forecasted 93* to shoot more pics and practice with the video side of the camera.

Hopefully Dale's addicted and going back today to feed us more pics and video.

We can all appreciate what this guy has done... that's the whole package there. If there is anyone local here in Portland Vancouver... the 67 will be running again today in group 5.

Just to put it into perspective of how fast this car was... he was running a 1 min 24 sec lap time. The average time for the rest of the guys in the class was low 1:30's. The car had 15" wheels and 10-3/4" diameter disc brakes and he was running 155 mph down the front and back straight. Very impressive.

The driver was talking to a group of guys after the second race and said "you're not going fast when your hooked up, it's only when you feel like your driving on syrup that you know your going fast"

Yesterday at the track I mentioned to Dale "after watching this, and with your motor, I have a funny feeling your tire expenses are going up" or something to that effect.

I feel like I really missed something! These cars are unbelievable! PIR is about an hour and half away for me. Hopefully next year. I'm putting it on my calendar.

1:24 at PIR is hauling the mail. And all you have to do is watch him drift that thing off of turn 12, with the concrete coming up on the outside, then shifting while still tracking out without a bobble - that guy can drive.

That 67 sounds WICKED. The old boat is right where I'd expect it, the caboose.
