May 29th Full Throttle Speedway. The 1988 Monte Carlo was fun to drive, it just needs a few tweeks to get it better. This night was just a shake down, and we learned a lot. This car had been parked for two years, and then Jason had it rebuilt. Once the car is finished, we […]

We had a great day at Innisfil Beach being part of Cruisefest, seeing all the boys and girls from the Innisfil Beach Cruisers. Billy, Karen and Buttons joined me for the day.
