BG 2007 Experience

This was only my 2nd time attending this event to which we arrived early Monday morning. I have to say that this event at least to me represents going fast with class. I can't remember anywhere I have spent extended time with any better people. I know I will be forgetting some folks however it was nice to meet all the faces and place them with a TB.com name. I would like to extend thanks to the following folks who helped us in one way or another the entire week: Bob Armstrong, Jason Kramer, Dick Kereny (nice win bud, at least we didn't spin down the track when eliminations began ), Cal Hartline, Dave Fiscus (cutting up tools he hasn't even used yet, but it worked!!), Otto, Jason White, Lawrence Conley, Bobby Don, Scot W, Shane Grimsley, Jack Cotton, Steve Sullivan for race gas, Vince Janis for a great tranny, Joe Lubrant, and there are others however I apologize if I have forgotten anyone. I definately plan to make some passes next year and Hope to see most if not all of you again in 08.

BTW, I was able to snap a few photos trackside, If you need the full size copy just let me know....

Clint, I can't say enough about how much you helped me in the TSM race. You knew just where to line me up on that semi final round. I ran my best 60' of the week and my best ET and MPH ever.

Thanks Bud!

Hey sydwyndr,
Thanks for the pix. Do you have any good launch pix of Bobby Don's Marroon TSO car. I heard he had the front wheels up all weekend.
Thanks,
Chris

No sir I do not, that was really all I took between working on the tube car ( Big gun runner up) and messing up a new 70GTQ and towing cars back with the Polaris when they broke.

Hey Keith, You do not have anything u can say if you don't show up. But to answer your question about as long as I can recall.
