What a great, fun day yesterday was! We had a perfect weather day for this event. Thanks to Dick Clark, Rich Mars, and Tom Shea for participating. It was fun to race and see all the beautiful show cars. Also cool to watch those 7 second race-prepared cars do their thing. Awesome!

Looking forward to next year. Some of us were talking about doing a "Camp NVCC" tailgate there the next time around. [B-)]
