...Good question!
And Now a Word From The Sponsors:
What's behind the "Landrum Coil Springs" Banner on Billy Bauer's #87 Super
Stock?
Billy moved the banner to reveal... what else... more info about Landrum
Performance Springs.

McClelland talk shop...

...Back to the Action...
Remember the old days where you could actually see the engine? Neat to see
the side panels off the #111
Everybody was watching John Romano take the win in the SS Sprint Feature, and we
spotted these 3 enjoying the moment!
With lots of help from friends during the week, John Romano and Tony P made it
to Victory Lane - with 3Wide on the wing!
Mick Search showers the crowd in victory lane with a little "New Egypt
Champagne" after winning the Super Stock Feature.
...speaking of water.... A sudden downpour hit the track during the early
going of the modified feature... Now what???
Well... with over an hour & a half to go before curfew, and radar
looking good... The call was made for the track crew.
The mix of track clay and the brief shower made for some sloppy going in the
pits... What's going on over there?
Working off sheets of cardboard in the mud, Team #2B was able to repair the
brakes and then some...
With the possibility of still running the balance of the mod feature, Stan
Frankenfield decided to leave his underoo's on!
The call was made from the pit shack, "If you guys wanna race, we need you on
the track." Bob Hendershot heeds the call.
Many teams loaded up and went home, but a majority of the qualified mod and
sportsman feature cars stayed put...
Mr. Bob heads out to help with the track readying process... Bob was
leading the modified main before the rains came.
The track crew and the remaining qualified feature cars do their best to run the
track in...
Talk about "Dirty Jobs!" Rocco was the first to take to the track when the
call was made for cars to help out..
When the racing resumed, Frank Cozze found his way around a very fast Bob
Drayton for his first win of 2008.
One race left... Tommy Carberry (yellow blur) leads over Rocco Infante
(white blur) in the final laps
of the Sportsman Feature.
But it was Rocco Infante making the last lap pass to take the win. Rocco
give's the double "2" symbol for "2 in a Row!"
Remember that "Dirty Job" photo above? Maybe it was karma that the
first driver to take to the track to help get the surface race ready, ended up
being the last engine running as Rocco drove the JR1 away after celebrating in
victory lane.
