JOHN WILLMAN!

Here is John Willman's creation that he ran this past saturday night at the open competition show at Grandview Speedway. How cool is that? When I first saw it I thought; "Will that thing really help"? Boy, did I change my mind quick when John brought the car out for the heat race. John was practically flat footing the car around the high banks! I would have loved to see him in the feature. Unfortunately, the car developed mechanical problems and never took the green. Pretty cool though John! (Fred George photo)

BPG FREEDOM 76 PRE-RACE!


The pre-race tailgating in the parking lot is half the fun of the BPG Freedom 76! Time to hang out with friends and play some washers and consume a few beverages of choice. Chad Sinon stopped over and played some washers and shared a few stories early in the day! Can't thank Chad enough for all he has done to help promote "CPN". One hellava guy! Pictured above; Doug Ayres, Brett Thayer, Chad Sinon, Eric Shankweiler and Captain Ron Shankweiler.

TOM MAYBERRY!

Glad to see Tom Mayberry behind the wheel again! Tom was in the Weinert racing #18 last saturday night at Grandview Speedway. Look for Tom again in the Weinert Plant Food #18 this saturday for the BPG Freedom 76. Apparently Michael Weinert who I believe is 15 years old, needs to be 16 to run a Nascar sanctioned event?

LOOKING FOR 2 BIG WHEELS!



Cowpatty Nation is in need of 2 Big Wheels for use at the New York State Fairgrounds in Syracuse, New York. If anyone has either one to get rid of or sell please contact me at vols22@comcast.net  ASAP! They will be used for the Club Wago Backstretch Bash race on friday nite at the Fairgrounds. This is the piece Eric and I ended up on last year. Needless to say it was pretty used up, as we may have been too!
