Title: PowderPuff at Bug-In 33
Post by: Pump Gas on April 09, 2008, 23:08:10 pm
Bug-In 33 has come and gone, and it was a alot of fun (except for all the oil downs), and being in the staging lanes most of the day.  We had 20 ladies racing, and 2 of them were from the UK - Adele & Jo!  It was awesome for them to be able to join us racing.
I really want to thank all the sponsors that we had.  I never got to go over to So Cal Imports to thank them personally - so that was one thing I wish I had time to do.

Well I really hope to see all the ladies at the next race - having another great time.

Congratulations to Candy Larsen - Winner & Kristen Thompson - Runner-Up!

And thank you again to Dee Berg & Kathie Craig for my wonderful basket they presented me!

Hey Susy, I watched you make a couple of passes. Looks like you and Mike have that Ghia working well.

Rick,

It has been a little while since I went down a quarter mile track - so that was so much fun.  Mike has done a awesome job on my motor and trans, and the car seemed to hook up really well!  On one pass, my fan belt came off, so I went 102 mph - so that was really fun!  Can't wait till July or Las Vegas in October

Susy!

I had a great time, thanks for your hospitality, was good to meet you all in person.
So cool to get to race in another country and thanks, of course, to Dave for lending me his car.   ;D

Glad you enjoyed it Jo. Was really pleased how comfortable you were in the car. So comfortable that I was scared you might just take off with the car and not come back. Was great watching you. Hope to do it again. Maybe Irwindale before you go back.      Dave Rhoads

I think it would be more excited to run bracket races here in Europe like you do in US . Only let the ladies drive like the others is not so interesting i think . It is very sad that we have no classes and races here .

Thanks Adele for posting the photos! 

Rick - yes I love the look of the alloys also, and it is especially nice that they were Mark's from the Quaife Test car!  He is always there with me everyday anyway, and everytime I race!

Can you let me have the names/addresses of the winner and runner-up of the PP at Bug-In so I can sort out the subscription prizes?

See you soon!
