For the nitro classes, they put the finishline markers, and then remove them when they are done

Re: My Pomona2 pics and what happened to me on Saturday



a mini cacklefest was lit, and as all Pomona visitors know, lots of aviation coming and going





the top end bleachers were draped with massive AAA of SoCal banners



which sucks because now we can't go there to watch comp and super class racers fender race.

Re: My Pomona2 pics and what happened to me on Saturday

This was Wilk's reception at the Residence Inn of Ontario Friday night



Wilk was very gracious and spent lots of quality time with each guest!



I checked out the hotel and it's facilities. Pretty good! This would be a good place to stay for you out-of-towners! The staff were excellent, the place was clean, and the location was convenient and safe. The Residence Inn across the street from the Ontario convention center near the Ontario airport.

Saturday

Jon Capps(on left) and Wyotech seminar



the GM display were dynoing an engine repeatedly. It drew big crowds. I guess people were waiting to see it blow up?



David Baca was in the pits, I asked him about any racing plans plans for '09. See you soon David!

Re: My Pomona2 pics and what happened to me on Saturday





OK, so here's the Saturday "thing/deal/story" that happened to me.

So a couple weeks back, I'm on the computer, but with the TV in the living room on in the background. Out of the corner of my eye I see drag racing.
WTH?!
It's a TV commercial for a contest being held by a local TV station and NHRA!
Cool. So they show the website and I immediately check it out. Seeing no funny business, I registered.
Couple weeks later, it's my birthday. One of the calls I got that morning was to inform me that I was chosen as the winner!!!!
But dig this, it includes a "Stand on the start" experience! Wow, could it be true? So they tell me come down to get the tickets at NBC studios in Burbank.
So Friday morning off I go. They explain everything and man, was I stoked.
They gave me a shirt too.



Yeah, man!

Re: My Pomona2 pics and what happened to me on Saturday

So I head to the Powerade experience at 11:00am as instructed ( I took Chris Cook too!)
and met with the NHRA liason. Things were running a little behind, so while we were waiting, we were given a tour of the new suites!

Here we go....



damn these the suites are sweet!
