All I can say is
What A Race! it was another Great Show for The Powerglide
Promods at Richmond Dragway. We had 3 new members sign up at
Richmond which brings our total membership to 56. Out of those
56 members we had 21 of them
At Richmond Dragway and all I can say is we had some of the
closest side by side racing action we've seen all season. We had
7 pair of cars that were separated by .05 or less in
eliminations. New Comer Joe Smith from Hague Va. was the #1
qualifier at a 4.386 with his Chevy Powered All Motor Dodge
Avenger. David Campbell aid down the fastest pass of the event a
4.342 @ 164.47. eventual Winner Nick Cline and his Dad Mike
finally got their 38 Chevy running strong Nick ran 4.40's all
day on the way to the finals against Topsportsman stand out and
home town hero Don Rudd. I Think that is enough small talk let's
get to the action.
