The main sponsor "Nu-Vintage" is under new management, and is dedicated to making this show the best in the mountain states region.

I'm pleased to announce that DYNO DON will be the MC this year, and we are very excited about having him at our event.

Also new this year, Denver will be the 3rd stop of the Mountain States Racing Association's drag racing series, Brainchild of Eric Madson former PRA Pro-mod champ.
Round 1 was just held in Salt lake City and was a great success, round 2 is coming up in Albuquerque NM, on June 2 2012

Stay tuned to this thread, as we will updating it on a regular basis.

Can't wait for it! Wife even got the weekend off so she can enjoy it this year too.

Sam is doing everything he can to make this year great.

I will be there with my daughter Shanna...now a resident of the area....with her 65 bug!

Right on Rick, Gonna by fun times. Look forward to meeting you.

Definitely stop by Painters Grinding Saturday if you can...

I believe she has an appointment for me to bring in her 65 Friday morning to have the axle seals and gaskets replaced.  She has trans fluid coming out of the drum. If you are there on Friday, we can hook up.  Look forward to meeting you and hanging out.

 For those from the Denver area I need your help in seeking two long time friends of mine.  Jeff newton of "Modern Combat sports".. also known as "The Original Karate Kid" and former UFC combatant who gained Black belt status under Mr. Bob White.  Also... Dave Park ,Tattoo Guru and owner of "Ancient Arts Tattoo". I have tried all contact numbers with no luck.  Both these guys are awesome and would appreciate any contact on my behalf to come join me at the Denver Bug In.

Thanks Eddie for your enthusiasm as it was just what I needed. Nice to see a full Race program with approx.  75 car count and NO breakages...Whew..!! A well rounded program for sure and am glad you all allowed me the freedom to stroll about and spend time with the masses. Thanks to Tom Hewitson from Miramar Construction and Sam @ Nu Vintage for getting me to and from as well. Next year is being planned with some new options and considerations which will make the event even stronger. MSVWRA... you guys rocked the house..!!  Congrats to all that made this event what is was in spite of some unexpected misfortunes along the way and Thanks to the many for your kindness and hospitality in making my visit a good one. See you all next year..?  Dyno Don

Hey Eddie...Shanna and I had a great time at Painter's. Thanks so much for the great hospitality and introducing us to all the gang....Keith, Ross, Shuan and Dayton. Had a really relaxing and fun time.  Was a blast taking Shanna for a ride in Keith's little pocket rocket turbo'ed tube chassis car!  She will probably never get in a car with me driving again! :-)  She kept screaming...."I CHOOSE LIFE" as we blasted down the street in front of Painters.  Tell everyone hi and I look forward to seeing everyone again next time I am up!  Say hi to Tom for me too...Was nice talking to someone who grew up in Riverside and was familiar with the area I grew up in too.
