Sights and sounds for the masses that can not attend. You have no idea how much those vids and watching your car makes my day. Thank you. Mark L

To people that have never attended Norwalk, these videos, especially cruising the pits, will give you an idea of what your passing up by not attending. A video showing a trip around the car show side would be equally impressive.

Great videos, I was waiting in staging lanes to make some runs and saw your car run a 7.80 and a 7.81 if I remember correctly. Your car is very impressive, Mike sr.

Thank you for all the nice comments.

My son Brandt does all the videos. He got a new camera so he was out and about shooting everything. The cruise through the pits was on Sunday after lunch, so unfortunately many cars had already left.

He also designed the color scheme for our car and is my right hand man at the races. Many thinks to him - couldn't do it without him. Also many thanks to my wife Laura who put some of her wishes on hold so I could indulge myself with this car.

Here are three more short ones just for fun. I thought the last one of the Boss Bird against the backdrop of Arnie making a pass was particularly poignant.
