Another fun night at the track made even better by a visit from good friend, Bob Gatten (Chad Boespflug's grandpa), up from Florida and looking good after recovery from a recent major health scare.

Also GREAT surprise when Leann Clemons (big time fan of Joss Moffatt, Chad Boespflug, Andrew Elson, and anyone named Clemons), also on the mend from some 6 weeks ago ICU sheet time, joined the Section "A" residents with hubby Todd. She even brought cookies (in sprinter #98 colors) and Bugles for everyone.

Had to be impressed that Bob and Monica Clauson risked their pristine reputations to join us suspects for the evening, despite the Charles Nungester warnings. It's clear to me that Chuck wishes he could move to "A" but he just doesn't quite have what it takes.......just yet.

I admit I don't know all factors involved, but seems to me that a black flag or cessation of scoring for a lapper who wouldn't follow lineup instructions might well have saved my buddies, Landon Simon and Jason Soudrette, from running out of fuel. Funny how few bad decisions we make from high up in "A".

Not going into the a big review, The others covered it pretty good.

It takes more than one hand to count over the past couple years the times Grant has been the class of the field and didn't win for whatever reason, Including last years points championship race where Boespflug beat him after Grant started on the pole and had a lap three flat.

Westerfeld, Wow, What a come back run!

I told dad to keep a eye on Soudrette, Told him he drives the wheels off and by lap 15 he was in the top 7 after starting way back.

Took Elson a bit to get back into Burg Mode but recovered for a top five! Welcome back Champ.

Moffat, I seen him mention Browns Car on the net but wasn't sure who it was until it came out. Haven't seen it in a few years..

Like I said, Me and Dad had a lot of fun in a difficult time in our lives. Today and tomorrow is Funeral Home and Cemetary's.

Take care all.
