Grumpy Old Men were solidly in eighth place as of 10:58 am Sunday morning when the clutch exploded. The three hours it took to change the clutch and chisel out the pilot bearing cost us 30 places. But our anchor drivers for Sunday (Bill Foster and Randy Pobst) brought us back to 33rd. Randy set the fastest lap time of 147.3 in the GOM Trans Am.(Martyn Wheerlers old autocross car)


:shock: Impressed you drove on a team with Randy Pobst...he's a class act and a great driver. :thumbsup:




just to be clear.................. Randy Pobst drove on Bernie's team. Bernie would be too humble to point that out. 8)

The #13 Grim Reaper Racing V-6 Mustang finished 10th overall and 1st in the "B" class. We beat out the 2nd place "B" car by 8.4 seconds. Fast lap was 2:05. One penalty for a driver crashing/spinning himself. Also ran out of fuel 100 feet from pit entrance trying to cut Sunday down to one pit stop. These two goofs made it a close race. Also, radio system quit working saturday about noon. A new one is on order for VIR in a few weeks.

$500 in nickels and a cool trophy was the reward.

Congrats to Magnum and the other Tarheel teams.

A bunch of pictures from the race.

I think you ought to take those nickels to a casino and play them until you hit big or they are gone. Would make a great Lemons story.

Good idea. Maybe we pull up to the front door in the old Mustang and pull the nickels out of the trunk. Use a wheelchair to haul them all in to the slot machines. We could also spend it all on liquior and strippers. That would make for a good story too....

Meh, spending it on Midget wrestlers and Meth would make a much more interesting story I think.

Well that was going to be it but we found out you were going to be with Magnum that weekend.

Judging by Randy's dress attire while working on our car at Lemons want to go with Shooter Mcgavin
