DC members race at Pinks (pix inside)

[firefighter3931]

Pinks at Norwalk was a fantastic experience....about as much fun as you can have with your clothes on. 

Myself and a few other members (Blown 68 & KamKuda) made the long haul down to Ohio to cheer on the Mopars and see what all the fuss is about. Lets just say we were not disappointed. 

I'd like to recognize a few of our Members who competed and did a fantastic job. Either of these two guys could have easily been in the winners circle had their cars fallen into the specific bracket chosen by the Pinks crew to compete. Thanks guys, you did us proud ! 

Doug and Greg both deserve some recognition for making the race, looking good and performing well !

Thanks for the pics Ron!!! Does that mean you want to go to Pinks @ Etown if you don't make the field? You know you have an open invite......

Both cars are beautiful. Good job guys show'n them what Mopars can do.
They should have let you guys run on the show.   
That 69 looks like a black panther creepin from the dark ready to pounce on its prey.
Thanks for sharing Ron.

Good thing you caught that early.....What times were you running? You couldn't have been to far from the group....

Ron, any times on their cars?  What bracket did they pick?  10.0?

Chris,

Doug was running mid 10's in the heat.....he normally runs 10.30 or so if i'm not mistaken 

Greg was running high 10's IIRC 

You couldn't have been to far from the group....

Doug, it looked like a 10.0 field and most of the cars were tuned down to run in that field. Cars with chutes don't normally run 130-132 mph in the 1/4 

Dave Ross's 68 is a true 10.0 car and he ran it "all out" just like the shows says he should have
