Here is my stuff.... on the ceiling... Hmm... How'd it get there? Even my practice body, and cell phone!

Poor Ray, When they put his stuff up there ( picture posted earlier in this thread ), they even called his phone. He never noticed untill he heard it ringing..

I caught Paul Lemieux sleeping, something that very few people did very much of.

Even the backstretch was full of racers, and spectators who didn't want to miss the action.

All of the factory drivers presented a signed picture of Scotty along side the team drivers to put up on the Trackside wall.

Edit - The gift was THIS picture, only taken a few seconds later, with all the guys facing forwards.

...and on to awards, and door prizes! Many manufacturers donated kits, speed controls, chargers, tires, and other items for the door prizes. Top three in every race walked away with a Trophy.

Cyrul's car was glued to the pit table. One of the Shumacher drivers ( and i forgot who pitted where ) had his car stand glued to his pit board. I have incriminating evidence of the car-stand being glued to the pitboard.

Actually, it was pretty hilarious. This race did not escape the CA escapades. Josh Cyrul was pitting right across from me. When he was up getting one of his trophies, his car was superglued to the top shelf of the pit table via all four wheels. So he goes to grab his car, and of course it wouldn't budge. I looked over thinking he was rocking the table back and fourth for some strange reason. He was holding his car and pulling on it back and fourth as hard as he could. The entire row of pit tables swinging back and fourth. Finally, he gave it a swift blow with the butt of his hand and the car broke loose. It took the paint and splinters of wood off of the table.

So when you see the picture on Trinity's site of the Lemieux, Kinwald, and Cyrul holding their cars and stock motors, now you know that the tires on his car all had a piece of Trackside clinging to them.

Dave, is that when Troy Schroeder (not sure how to spell it, the Fantom guy) burst out laughing so loud? None of us were too sure what was happening then.
