I had a blast at Skippack's Fall Brawl and was lucky enough to place in two classes.
Thanks to Al and Hank for putting on this great event.
2nd Place for Inline Stock
1st Place for Pancake Pro Mod This was also the only 4gear car in the class and it has an all plastic gear set. Who says a 4gear can't compete against a 3 gear car?

Thanks Al,
It was all about the driver for this win.
In the Semi's it took a hole shot to beat Jim P.
I was victorious in the Finals thanks to Skylark's red light.
