I just realized I have not written a story about the 2017 Awards Banquet. I guess I should get busy before our season starts!

The Pacific Northwest Super Street Association Banquet was held January 13, 2018.  It was at the Shilo Inn in Tacoma.  We had a record crowd of 51 people in attendance. At least it is a record since I took over. I think that next year we will have to move the banquet due to the size.  Lots of racing bs was discussed, and everyone won a great door prize.  A big thank you to the sponsors who donated the door prizes – Westbay Auto Parts, Snap-On Tools, Honest Performance, Designs Unlimited, K&N Filters, DG Machine, A-1 Performance, Seeitimagery, FBN Racing, and Spring Fling Million.

We had a general meeting at 5:00 pm.  We discussed the 2017 season, the upcoming season, current rules and other things.  We will be running 1/8 mile at Renegade and Bremerton in both SC and SST. Also, we will have a doubleheader at Mission Raceway.

Congratulations to Todd Sims who won the SST Championship. 

We have 13 races again this year and 10 will count for the championship.

Winter is upon us, so get those cars ready for the next season.

The Pacific Northwest Super Street Association Banquet will be held January 13, 2018.  It will be at the Shilo Inn in Tacoma.  The same place it was last year.  The cost will be $30.00, payable at the door. 

We will have a general meeting at 5:00 pm, with the dinner at 6:00 and the awards after dinner.  Bring your own adult beverages.

Looking forward to 2018, I hope to have 13 races again.  I will post tentative dates soon. 

Welcome to Pacific Raceways for the fifth race of the year.  This race was sponsored by Federal Way Automotive and Radiator. A great turnout was on hand.  There were 25 cars on the property, and 19 paid the fee to garner points and money from the association. After two rounds of qualifying, Diane Petitt grabbed the #1 spot with a stellar 10.904. Snap On tools provided the #1 Qualifier Award.

Todd Sims, Bill Gee, Allen Macham, Bruce White, Dustin Martin, Dustin Ward, Dave Wakefield, Diane Petitt, Gary Ermish, Jeff Jackson, Jess Dale, John Ermish, Kevin Jellum, Mark Loftus, Matt Kielman, Steve Beggerly, Jim Mabry, Nikki Cannon, and Michelle Reynolds were present. 

Round one started with Petitt getting the bye.  Martin holeshot Gee, Jackson prevailed when Emil red lite, Dale beat a slowing Loftus, Reynolds forced Wakefield to break out, Beggerly won against Jellum’s red lite, Mayer beat J Ermish in a double breakout, Ward won against G Ermish, Mabry was closer than Craig on a double break out, White used a good lite for force Sims to break out, Kielman beat Cannon, and Macham got a single when Buckholz was a no show.

In round two, White won when Jackson turned on the red eye, Martin used a hole shot to beat Macham, Ward beat Petitt, Beggerly knocked out Dale on another double break out, Reynolds was just a little closer and got by Kielman, and Mabry had the bye.

The quarter finals got underway with Beggerly getting the bye. Then the two Dustin’s paired up. Ward was .007 good on the tree and Martin was .007 bad (red light). White took out Mayer with a hole shot and then closer, 10.870 to 10.840. Reynolds got to the semi’s when Mabry slowed.

Semi final time.  Ward with a .004 to beat Beggerly.  Then White with a .008 to beat Reynolds.

Only two left.  Ward and White.  Ward had a better lite, then ran closer on a double break out – 10.883 to 10.870. Great racing by everybody.

A big thank you to Federal Way Automotive and Radiation for the sponsorship and congratulations to Dustin Ward for the win.

Designs Unlimited has designed a T-shirt for the SST racers. Get yours before they are gone.  The price is $15 a shirt, with the money going to the prize fund.

Our next race is a double July 1 and 2 at Bremerton Raceway.  We will have a BBQ Saturday evening at the Super Comp Association trailer.  We provide the hamburgers and hot dogs, you bring a side dish.  Come join the fun.
