This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Looks like we'll double the non-turbo (V8) participation from last year. That is GREAT news! I for one am looking forward to seeing and hearing some FAST BBB power. Hopefully we can double it every year for a few.

    I made a slideshow of the pictures that I took. Most were taken before noon yesterday.
    Go to the West Coast Nationals page, and then click on the SLIDESHOW oval at the left. There's about 115 pictures in all, and will take at least 15 minutes to show all of them.
    If others would like to ship me their pictures & videos, I'd appreciate it.

    event shirts

    Jack, if there are any shirts and or sweatshirts left over from the event will they be for sale at some point? was not able to get there this year, and John Schmidt has been raggin on me since I bowed out of the trip.

    Thanks, Bruce

    Sorry, we ran out of T-shirts around noon, and sweatshirts at the end of the day.
    We like not having left overs and all, but we definitely should've ordered a whole lot more this year. We of course count those that pre-order, and then add a percentage on top as a SWAG to cover the demand at the show. We will use a bigger % in the future.

    I'd appreciate it if all would go to the SMACK board off the West Coast Nationals home page, and vote for next year's payouts.
