Not Ranked
Did'ja ever have a weekend where you felt you were on Viagra, but never took the stuff????
I sported a Woody for 2 days continuous at the SVRA Zippo Races at the Glen. Some seious Iron (and aluminum!) were to be seen.
Unbelievable weather, attended the SVRA "Soiree" at the track clubhouse Saturday night, drinking good clean booze for free and rubbing elboes with Vic Edelbrock, Bill Murray, JJ Rodman and all the folks that attended.
I spent a good deal of time in the pits talking to folks. Steve S. and I spent nearly an hour with JJ Rodman who owns CSX2472, an original Dragon Snake and one of the nicest guys on the planet.
Saw some serious Cobra racers form the Shelby Museum, CSX3032, CSX24?? (The Dan Gerber car), a GT40 (white, green wheels...ferget the ##).
Saw the Penske 67 Sunoco Camaro runs until he had mechanical problems.
Sunoco Lola and Lister.....
Tons of Jag Type C's.
Cobra Automotive was flying the GT350 banner with 6 to 8 cars in Group 6.
Group 6 had a field of about 55 cars, took up the entire rear straight of the Glen...amazing thunder in this big bore group.
Bill Murray won the Group 6 race in CSX3032. He battled with Dale Phelon in his Camaro and the white vette of Dick Mooney (I think).
One of two Maserati 312 street cars owned by Lance (ferget last name...real nice guy).
NO CHEETERS BRUCE!!!!!!!!!
I was there with Steve Sunshine (aka CSX4027) and ran ino the following folks from Club Cobra...
Danny Ostrower (aka Super Snake) blew head gasket on Porsche 968)
Steve Smith (aka fia#09)
Peter Baselice (lurker and Club Cranky member & son Patrick)
Russ (lurker who found me because I said I would wear a yellow COMP. LIFE T Shirt!)
Bill Karns (aka wgk)
Tim Lewis (aka mustang man)
Of Course, we saw the Competition Life Sponsored Group 10 car of Lauren Fix in her John Player Special Trans Am Mustang which was severly trashed in an accident in Turn #6 (laces of boot) when she went thru Speedy Dry. Her crew and husband Paul had the car repaired in time for group 10 run on Sat. PM. But the car was retired Sunday AM with a bad connecting rod.
Great time, met lots of great people and saw lots of killer racing (hung out at the Inner Loop where the pros were going 3 wide into the loop!)
