Absolutely agree!  My third year in a row attending and as always had a great time.  Pacemakers is a nice location for the meet.  A little smaller than NTR but I think that makes it even better.  Met a couple more forum members and had a great time talking with them. 

And Bob, if you leave the keys in the Rogue one more time, I can't promise I won't be too tempted! Big smile

Once again Mike, Elsa, and their support team hit it out of the park. What a great time. So many people had so many positive things to say about the location. I think Mike needs to consider Pacemakers for the next GAD. Even the weather cooperated this year.

A "thank you" should also go out to all who took the time to show up and partake of this great event. This is really a "for the people" event.

Congrats to the peoples choice winners and the racers who scored some wins.

Glad to hear, so far, that everyone made it home safely.

Ihad a great time, thanks to all involved, especially Mike and Elsa, and to Damian Terrell for rounding up a ton of sponsors for door prizes.  Had some issues with my car which didn't interfere with my fun quotient, as I made 4 good strong passes and drove the car to the event and back home safely.  Thanks to Doug, Rob Tompkins and Mike for getting the car up on the lift to check out my problems and to everyone that offered advice and assistance.  
See you next year!

That it was, I finally got to my first GAD, as well as, my first visit to Pacemaker Dragway. Had a great time and Mike had it all running super smooth. Visited with a few guys, bought some parts, watched some racing, took some photos, and enjoyed the great weather. Left Pacemakers and headed down to National Trails to watch Kevin (Stickshifter) run in a big race tonight. First pass he qualified 3rd with a 4.62 151 mph.  Thanks for putting on such a great event Mike.

Loved seeing this SC  Rambler

Same here as well! First time for me and I had a good time meeting forum members and a few others. I had never been to Pacemakers and I think it's a great track in a nice setting. Hope it stays there. I'm planning on going next year. It sure would be nice for people to bring their cars though. Wink

I agree, another great event and I hope GAD stays at Pacemakers. It was difficult getting used to those 1/8 mile times on the boards though!

Finally got my schedule cleared this morning so I'll finally get to attend the show for the first time. I haven't seen Mike in over 15 years when I bought a windshield and a tilt steering column at his shop for my 69 Rambler Rouge. 

Weather looks to be excellent on Friday with a high of 80 degrees and no rain.
