Gents,

If you plan on running @ the Atlanta record trials PLEASE pre-register with Norman.

Contact : CD: Norman Morton (404) 761-3775 email: norwen@att.net

This way Norman can start the log with names, classes, and times to beat. It will greatly speed up the process come time for the event. We will have everything already filled out and ready to go and we won't have to be trashing through the record books trying to get everything in order.

Thanks for your cooperation!

Wow man! Judging from the records list this was circus of the stars!
Jerry Crowther, Reed Eagle, and Andy Brown at one event? -Legendary.

Congrats to all contestants on all the records guys!

Reed, congrats on blasting open those Stock and Super stock records.
Hopefully you figured out a few things "You shouldn't be telling me" (inside joke)

Well, since my jokes are often misconstrewed, the inside joke is Reed and I will be at an event going for the exact same records, and end up giving each other a few pointers starting with "Ya' know, I shouldn't be telling you this but if you move the.."

IMPBA records feel great because you get a big wall mountable AWARD : )

Chili I'm Shocked you weren't there!!
I'll see you before the season is out. I'll be ready for some straightaway action in a couple/few months..

I'm toning down the trials a bit this year Bill. Too many irons in the fire. Plus SAW's in Liz City is the same weekend as our first district race and heat racing with my son takes priority. I do make the trip down to Atlanta every year in July to race with Smock and the D13 guys. Hopefully we'll see you in the fall!!

Special Congrats to Reed for kicking some ARSE!!
