Bill Hoddinott will be one of the inductees. Anyone who reads Bonneville Racing News has enjoyed his articles and interviews over the years. Wish I could be there.

Corngratulations to all of the 2013 inductees.  Funny -- Nancy and I are sorta new to LSR, having been on the salt since 2001.  But - we know a big bunch of this year's folks -- Cathy and Van Butler, Bill Hoddinott, Wes Potter and Ellen Wilkinson, Sonny and Dixie Rossi (who haven't been out there for a handful of years), Rick Yacoucci, even Wayne Jesel (whom I suspect will be there to represent Jesel as the manufacturer of the year, and Ron Main and George Poteet - there for the Speed Demon.

Yep -- land speed racing is a family affair.  Best wishes to all of you. 

PS  The pea soup is bland and thin -- unless, I suppose, you spend big bucks to get some additives.  We got plain - and it sure was.

It was a fun day. Weather E X C E L L E N T.

Spring time didn't harm the attendance in the least.

I would hope that all of you had it on your Bucket List.

Al Teague kept everyones attention for a long time as he turned public speaker.

I was assisted by Rat the Rat and he was marvelous as was his Camaro.

It was his first road trip in it.

I'm a little behind (as usual) but here are some photos.

Wes Potter,
Gary and Ellen Wilkinson,
Freud and one of the plaques,
and yes, my Camaro.   :-D


It was the first time for me at the Gas Up and it was great.  I really enjoyed it. 
Something totally expected was meeting Pat Ganahl, author of about a million different car books and seeing his gorgeous Deuce roadster.
