I was a racer at the Pinks All Out in Ennnis TX on March 21. Didn't make it in the chosen 16 but may be on TV, everyone loves Vettes! However, there were not enough of us. If I see another 1st gen Camaro I may barf!

I beat this truck off the line and to the finish. I think Rich was impressed...

Good luck to you! Have you already registered? Ennis was a real cluster .... the computers crashed and they had to take registrations over the phone. Be prepared to dedicate a few hours to the effort. I missed out on the initial registration, not by lack of effort, and had to qualify on a second chance weekend. Every one had to pay $30 for the opportunity to make 3 passes. They then allowed the 30 most consistant to register. I was #25 out of 85 with 3 passes within .05 sec.

Do they know how to make money or what!
