    My family and I met Stephen Moore and his family at Mooresville N.C. dragstrip for a day of racing and fun. We had a great time and the cars did well. The weather was perfect for racing as we both set personal best times.
    Here are a few pics...I'm putting a video together but I got to get Stephen to send me a clip of that best pass he made...got some great wheelstands of his car. I'll get the video up when I get it all together....(y)


    Hey Stephen...I didn't get none of that CAKE :cry:
