The climb went well with hardly a hitch. Some 25 cars ran the hill, only one major failure that I know of, the Shortland Brother's threw a rod :mad: after they had won the SP-1 class. (I think, not verified yet) The day was hot but clear and all had a good time!

Did they act like Dan Aykroyd and keep on going? :D

I would love to be a part of one of these events. Maybe one day.

The radiator hose on the Yellow A pickup could use some help.
 
Here's a few...

The AA belongs to Steve Salazar, it is mostly stock with the stock 4-speed trans. He chirps a little rubber off the line. It isn't fast but he has a ball with it, and somehow attracts a lot of lady passengers! He ran it one time with single rear wheels and it picked up some speed.
 
We lost Steve Salazar, the owner of the AA truck, a couple of weeks ago to cancer. If you were friends with him, I wanted to spread the word regarding his memorial.
There is going to be a memorial for him this weekend Saturday February 18th, at 11:00am,at Art and Olive Moore's residence at 333 E. 23rd Street, Upland CA, 91784. All are welcome to come join and celebrate Steve's life with his Wife, Family, and Friends.
