Mustang with a final round 10.61 on a 10.58 at 128.18 MPH

Another tough competitor in Street Automatic is Ryan
Shirk in his HP Engines powered Mustang. He's right near the
top in points.

Bill Marks fell in the finals of Bone Stock Truck to Leah
Shaffer's Blazer. Bill hopes to debut his Sonny Leonard
powered Olds 442 in WFO at Flashback Friday.

10.44 at 65.86 MPH to Colin's run out 10.10 on a 10.14.


For the fourteenth time this season Autumn Miller took
the JR ATV title. This time over Nick Cashdollar. Yes that's
his real name, no kidding!! Shown below Autumn's grand dad,
Harry Hassinger, the man who makes it all happen in the JR
ATV and Friday TCR programs, Harry owns and operates
of Duncannon Service Center. Harry was a former Bike
eliminator standout riding a Yamaha 350 in the 12 second
zone. My guess is that was 50 pounds and 20 years ago. Am I
close Harry? |
