Chuck

Thanks Chuck for putting together this great summation of the 2022 BCA National and congratulations and thank you to you and all the other participants and guests at the National's. It certainly won't be one I will forget.

Of interest my whole family came down from Minnesota for the event. My wife son 3 grand children 5 6 and 8 years old and a family friend of 20 years. That was an adventure in itself.

You may have noticed, the guy in the  checkered shirt is me, I am holding an award that isn't mine. My grandson had grabbed my award and ran it all the way back to the hotel across the street to show grandma he was so excited about it. I'm sure it is family lore that will live on forever. Thanks Kevin for your quick thinking on coming up with the substitute award.

Of particular interest on seeing my car is the set of 5 wheels that were set for recall when the car was brand new. I am the 3rd owner of this car and verified the facts with the original owner. They are commonly known as the 4 weld wheel's. The rim and center are only welded in 4 places instead of all the way around the rim. You may also notice the center pieces are painted gray instead of black as done in following years and the center spokes are polished not dull.

In summation we all had a great time and it will be remembered forever.

Chuck, thanks for posting the information on the Nationals. Also thanks for the kind words on my car. It was sad to see your car get a bath on it's first time BCA showing, but we were able to get the cars dried off and were still able to enjoy the rest of the day. Senior Gold is well deserved for your car. The judging sheet will tell the tale. With each car starting at 400 points It will be interesting to see how close to that number you get. My guess is very, very close.

Great reporting Chuck. The best part was visiting with old friends. Going Paisans for grub every night was enjoyable too.

Congratulations to all the winners.
