Well it's the start of a new year.  It won't be too long before race season is upon us.  Can you smell the VHT.  A few racers are making some modifications to their cars so it should be an interesting year.

The Mission Raceway awards banquet was well attended.  The Super Shifters appeared to out number all the other classes that were present.  The Hoogstins took care of the hospitality suite and the last stragglers left around 4:00 a.m. 

Christmas at the White House was a lot of fun.  Many thanks to the President, First Lady and all the First cats for an incredible evening.  Kim Bailey is now officially retired from the railway and is looking at a potential career in politics.  Tom Posthuma arrived in classic Tom style.  It seems that the lug nuts on his station wagon were not properly tightened and one of his wheels came off.  Since he didn't have any tools with him, he flagged down a kind, albeit drunk, Samaritan who drove him to Canadian Tire to buy some tools to put his wheel back on.  Ah yes, Tom style.

For those of you who wish to plan in advance, there will be two races again in Bremerton and no race conflicts with the Old Time Drags in Mission. 

The Annual General Meeting will be called in February and notice will be sent out to everyone that has provided an email address.  If you are not sure if we have your email address, contact Terry Hoogstins, t_hoogstins@yahoo.com and you will be added to the list.

Mega Ford Weekend is September 11 and 12 for all you Ford fans.
