vRoom vRoom ...Racing Days

Ol' Number 47!

Let's see if I can recall some great facts...

1. James #47 with Speedy Gonzales raced his heart out and ended in top a few times!

2. Dave Yeager #77 with The Green Martian raced with heart and love, enjoying all around!

3. Matt Jackling #88 lil purple car raced like no tomorrow,

this is before he promoted to the big boy racing, "Late Models"!

4. Larry "Bondo" unable to recall his number although bondo came off each race!

5. Dave Hall among the 5 I've listed above would stand together as one, enjoying the race!

Wow! I remember we'd start out early in the evening right before the sun went down loading up the trailer with the car and making sure we had our last minute items. We'd hop into the RED S10 pulling the trailer while getting pumped up listening to Seven Mary Three "Cumbersome" and others just to plaster the adrenalin in our hearts ready to go! We'd all be lined up and ready to enter the fence. All unloading with most helping eachother. It was than where I met Danielle, Dennis, Donny, Sweet Jennie and Diane Yeager...that was what back in 1995 or 1996! Great few years we had together... I can remember us all laughing, yelling, hoping and yes we were on the "edges of our seats", most of the time. James having flats, Dave getting the last pin on the hood, Matt ready to rock n' roll, Dave Hall just cruzing out there like time was endless, Larry speeding up there at the last minute ready to rare like a horse being with reigns pulled back! The times were great and for all of this I am THANKFUL! Sounds crazy although those were the days that made us the people we are today and great friends. How many of us had made friends with Mark Henderson at Center Tire, thanks to the "Hoosier Tires"? Gassing up right before and after the races. Driving home with the adrenalin racing through our veins just keeping us up to do this and that? Fun, is what I remember about it all...

This is the picture of James & Vidal out in the pits right in between racing...good ol' times

Late nights waiting for stats, loading up, talking of what went on, what was going to happen next time, and as the night grew darker, the dust settled down, the trailers moved on out...that's what FRIENDSHIP and working together is all ABOUT!

Thanks guys...vRoom vRoom
