Here is my photobucket link of some of today's bike and car tech inspection in Wilmington.

It was 56, foggy and overcast this morning so some of the pics are a little dark. The sun did start peeking out around 1:00 and it warmed up to 70. The forecast (for now) has tomorrow and Sunday looking spectacular!
I heard that the participant count is around 90 so that is way down from the 175 in April.....Still a good turnout! :cheers:
Studebakers are well represented with 4 Champions, 1 Avanti and a REALLY COOL flatbed that hauls the Avanti!

Midget.....Sean and the Big Bad Black Cad WEAPON is here.  :-D

I hope you enjoy!

Rained all the way here ... weather broke early this morning.  Bike tech went very well.  Had 4 and sometimes 5 inspectors had no real line and got everyone thru quickly.  Cars tech worked in a similar manner.  Looking for a good day of racing tomorrow.

noboD, No story other than a VERY COOL (BIG) street driven car that runs in the 170 range and Sean is a really nice guy! Every time I see Sean I tell him that car is just so wrong but so D-A-M-N cool!

Jack,
Owner's name is Gary Silvis from here in OH and he built it himself over last winter.
It's powered by a stock N/A 1000cc Suzuki (unblown) and runs in the I class.
In April (first time out) it was in the 160 range. It's a very well thought out and executed build!
I was talking with him yesterday and he told me he is still tweaking things on the car.

This is from the ECTA April run log:
3211 - I/GS - 160.4900 - Gary Silvis - New Record: Prior 0.000 - 04/27/2013 13:26:47

Here is the pic from yesterday with the body on before tech:



And here are a couple of pics I took back in April with the body off:





Hope this helps,
Gregg

Sounds like an east coast version of Bombshell Betty, full figured and fast.
