Re: Grizz's Redneck Express 1966 Chevy Short Fleetside RESTO-GO!

I think most of us know the mantra

"I live with fear every day, Sometimes she lets me go race"

In the case of Adam, this is Hanna, his certainly fairer half.

She lets him race.



Then we get started on the Hot Laps.

Modifieds first.

Followed by the other classes.




Love the size of these tyres.



Adam, local hero, or just hero..... well liked at the track, racing since age 6 thanks to Dennis.



Eventually at midnight, the last races end.

Adam gets some money not a bad thing.

.


The pit crew and Adam n Hanna stay near the track in a hotel.

We head out home after midnight in the Challenger.

120 miles.

Dennis gets pulled over for speeding at 01.30 in the morning.

We drive off with just a light warning.

Eventually get to bed at 03.00 or after that.


Sunday Danny comes back from the track to fetch some parts and to collect Dennis and I for the races.

Nice truck.





Dennis was Consigned to the back seat, due to his police history.



We head to Mittler Bros race shop, where he NASCAR race truck team are based, for some spares before heading out the race track.

Bed time now for me.

Later.
