Thanks Chris and Crew for putting on such a fantastic race! Does anyone know if there are pictures uploaded anywhere from the race?

One thing that I like about big races is that if you look around, you never know what you might see. Something cool like these:

Great Event Chris, but thats nothing new. Yourself, and the rest of the 301 crew always seem to raise the bar a few steps when it seems it cannot get any better. Thank you to my pitman Diatta aka D-Man. Thanks to Bruckner Hobbies for all their support and help. Greg Esser, you clutch tips helped alot...many thanks. Richie (BK Hobbies) thank you as always. Anyway, too many names too mention....thank you to everyone.

OOOOHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! One more....Thank you to the Chef. The burgers, chicken, hotdogs, and DAMN was that catfish of da chain. Yes, ladies and gents we had catfish at a race. Thats how its done in the south....did I mention the soulfood on Sunday.

GREAT!!!!!!! EVENT!!!!!!!!!

Default Thanks CWhit!

Good Times! Good People! Greezy Breakfast! You are by far the best host!
Thanks again from Rob Ralph and I.
We are already signed up for the NAT's
See you in Sept.

Oh and sorry Poalo for launching my car into your lap in the 8th C-main.
I changed the car and it sucked. I should have taken it off the track sooner!

I think there needs to be a trophy for most spectacular crash!
I think Mikey Mikes was better than mine. He cleared the highest fence with the most distance. Maybe I will create a trophy with and old wrecked decrepid chassis. If anyone has an old doner car PM me!

I think Mikey qualified for the US Olympic Track team with that one.

Mark Unrath, man you were a huge part in this race going off, I can't thank you enough for your time and effort. Mike Keely,Troy Woodson,Vincent Jackson and Garry I wouldn't be able do this thing without you guys, thank you.
For those of you that know me, you know that this has been my vision for along time and the thing that makes me do this are the smiles on everyones face, and everyone having a good time and nothing more. So I thank all that attended this weekend,and for putting on the show that you did and for your attitudes with which you came with and bearing with the heat wave that came thru the east coast.
Improvements for next year are being thought of already by Ted and I so we can try and make your racing experience better at 301 and trust me it will get better.
And last but certainly not least a shout out to 2 of the toughest people I now know Ryan and Randy Rhodes. One mentally and the other physically. Again I can't call out everyone but thank you all and I will be seeing you soon.


Chris Whitney
no prob chris, glad i was able to help congrats to all winners and hope everyone had a good time and enjoyed the racing as i did. i qualified 107 out of 109 and the last two dudes didn't even show..LOL!! but its all good just one of those weekends i got promoted though to admin duties due to my terrible driving ability definately a good fun weekend had a ball. it was so damm hot though on saturday i saw superman drive down moores rd in a cab.
