The Ronnie Sox race was a nice event. Very moving starting line ceremony with Ronnie and Malcolm Durham's widows and reading the names of the racers who passed this year. Race was good with mostly nostalgia doorslammers, including Classic Gassers. The crowd was a little light because it rained everywhere (including the track) although they got enough windows of dryness to get the show in. The rest of the event at Henderson was terrific, with chamber of commerce weather and lots of folks having a great time. bp
