Ruslow & Mark WIN!!!!!!!!!

I know I am bragging but to BAD!Mark and myself won the 145 class in Big Bend Open Road Race.This is the hardest course of the season.There are something like 69 turns in the last 29 miles and most of them are marked 65 or 60!So to win in that speed group is a major achievement to say the least.and as an added bonus there is a manditory car show that ALL the participates must enter and we won peoples choice in that!So that just goes to show you that my truck can show as well as GO. Stan

WOOOOOOOOOOO-WoooooooooOOOOO!
STAN YOU ARE THE MAN!
That's too cool for school for you to be putting the SMACKDOWN on other cars at that speed. 145? Holy Chit Man My Magnum Powers would have a hard time keeping that pace.
Way to KEEP it REal Stan-O My Man-O! :bigtu:

Good job Stan!
Any links/pics of the action? You happen to see a White GMC Typhoon out there with a driver named Dabney Crump? I forget which class he runs in.

Congrats Stan& Mark.
Going fast on a pretty much straight run is one thing.
Making that big ole truck out handle the sporty cars is a great feat !
How did your new aero package work out? What kind of top speed did you get?
Sorry for all the questions, But you are just teasing us with a little carrot.

Well the aero stuff worked in one way and hurt in the other!truck was and is way more stable at high speed 130 + but the top end is down about 6 mph.I need more hp to gain that back.Which should not be to much of a problem since I have some ideas ,Stan

Way to go Stan!!!

Obviously the moniker R-U Slow is no longer applicable. Should we now tag you as U-R(not)Slow!!! Great job Stan.

Rick
