Had a blast at Epping last night meeting fellow maters Corey, Mike and James and watching fellow mater Mike Minnick drive the nitro funny car Chitown Hustler on perfect runs.

My top 40 shots from the evening are at:

It was great meeting you, Ed. As expected, amazing shots! Those nostalgia cars are awesome, and it was my first time seeing the Chi-Town... That car's beautiful. Mike made a couple killer passes! That was a really good time for $30.

Always dig your pics. Nice. Thanx for shooting and sharing.

Whoa Mike, you are flirting with the 5's!

Thank You. the amazing thing I learned at this event was that this Nomex outfit totally meets SFI specs, well at least in my opinion

BTW, great job Saturday night Mike! I didn't make the show, but showed up on Sunday to pickup a new car and saw the rig. From what I was told, you guys were a complete class act.
Will you be with the team at Maple Grove next weekend?

Actually it was Dale Creasy JR. made a great first pass, second not so good. Strange night, very cold for June, lots of condensation on the windscreens.

It was great talking with you Ed, hope we run into each other again. Great show by all the Funny Cars and a big tip of the hat to the Chi Town crew for a nice pass on a dew laden cold racing surface.

Yes we'll be at Maple Grove next weekend. Frank Hawley will be doing the driving for the event. I'm looking forward to it!

Mike Smith.

I guess I mistook the driver at Beech Bend as the same Mike Smith.

Rick Krafft was driving the Brand-X at Bowling Green, not Mike Smith. Stop by the trailer next weekend and say hello if you have time.
