    Well, the infamous Southeastern/Georgia mini-meet is now history, and a think a good time was had by all. Nature gave us a beautiful day, and the folks that attended were treated to a million Mustangs, and other Ford fare, and some pretty good racing. My thanks to all that attended, and I am already thinking about how we can make it a better meet next year. If you have some suggestions, pls let me know. Here are a few pics of the cars (didn't get many of the folks there....too busy talking and looking). :clap:

    Our friend Ray Roland (IHRA Record Holder) and his Dad came by to talk and look in on things with his Maverick. Here are a few more. Enjoy!

    Craig; it was a bit cold in the morning, but about 10am or so it began to warm up nicely. It got to about 75degrees, and not a cloud in the sky. Good event! I will have the banner to you this week, thanks for sending it.

    Earl

    It was windy. Fifty degrees can be cold with a stiff wind. Those were my daughters under the blanket. They didn't think they would need the jackets that Mom suggested that they take.:huh: Ain't if funny how that works?
