Scroll down the page and click on the "Restricted Area" sign to access them.
The results from the event are posted also; now all we have to do is find the
time to write up all the pit reports and event overview. Not tonight though;
tomorrow maybe.
Yeah, it's been another week without much noise from Thunder-land, hasn't
it? Well, we haven't been sleeping... at least not all the time. After the
three days of Photo Gallery updates (the Drag Babes obviously), I thought:
"Let's spend a few minutes updating the links pages... shouldn't take more
than.... a month or two?"
It was 1236 or 1263 or 1326 or something like that. Now: I haven't a bleeding
clue. It took one entire evening just to update the racer links... then four
hours of checking them out, one by one, confirmed the existence of just 50 of
them. And on and on it goes. And will go, for at least another few weeks.
In the meantime, there's the small matter of a couple of race events to
cover. This weekend, the Mopac Canadian National Open is on at Mission Raceway
and next week, the big NHRA "Travelling Acceleration Show" wheels into Seattle
for the Northwest Nationals. Now for the bombshell: I've got media credentials
for the Northwest Nats. YES, believe it or believe it, NHRA has actually issued
me passes for the race.
What has happened? Where's the weather reports for Hades? What are those
large pink, oinking, winged beasts flying overhead? What date is on the calendar?
April 1st? NO, it's true. They've obviously got me confused with someone who
actually has something useful to say. Or at the very least, they've forgotten
all those rude things I said about S.I.R. back in '98.
Hang on a sec, the phones ringing . . . . That was someone calling to say
that I'd sold out to the association. Sorry to disappoint the critics, but
you know I'll never pull any punches... unless the legal department says that
it could wipe me out financially, again.
For all the results, reports and pictures from Saturday at the Mopac Canadian
National Open, you've got to enter THE RESTRICTED AREA. Don't say we didn't
warn you!
