Kenny is so much fun, I guess if a person wanted to hang out with someone at the track I would pick him. Well, except for Jr of course.

Speaking of food. Have you ever eaten at Tomaso's Tomato Pies in Eureka? I ate there once about 20-25 years ago. Remember it being very good. Looking now on the web though, they don't get good reviews.

Most-popular by fish sold or by fish desired? Cod's the most-sold, and either perch or walleye is the most-desired.
Hmiel couldn't get his car fired, and the field just took off without him.

Hmiel now has it fired up, but he doesn't have pit road speed set on the tach.

Hey glock. Glad you're in.

Smoke out to a big lead for Lap 1. Black flag for Boston Reid for passing before the start of the race.
