It was a way cool race. We dropped the trailer on Thursday and when we came back Saturday we were in the middle of the fuel cars. Two trailers down was the fuel Altered of Steve Panalis out of Colorado. Steve and I have been talking back and forth since he started coming to this race a few years ago. This trip he brought a few new folks from out that way. While waiting for our next run I went over to his pit and sat down with JR . Kaiser. Very interesting and a great honor to meet him. He started racing in 1958. I did a Google search and found he built a rear engine TF car before Garlits. Yes, way cool. George
