Collars & Pockets, they sound classy. I always like a pocket to carry my "extra" pair of :wink: eyes.

Oops. I gave the wrong impression. They are not pocket Ts and don't have collars. But the logo on front is the size and location of where you'd see a pocket and the lettering on back is small and right below the t- shirt collar. bp

The first wave of Draglist invaders is onsite, having just crossed the river into Iowa from parts East! The Spears and I will meet for dinner soon.

I got what must be the presidential suite! As I recall, there were only a few rooms left including this bad boy. I didn't remember reserving it, so I got quite a surprise when I opened the door and saw this...

I think Jeff is running in Pro ET.. I think that's the class. He hit a HUGE milestone today with his car. He not only met his goal, he drove a TRUCK through it! I will let Gary provide details... bp

Check out the link again as we added 300 more shots for a total of 435. Gary and I went out with Bret Kepner and his lovely partner Mary Ann for a late, late, late dinner last night. Got back and did few more photo uploads and updates until about 4am. Slept in a bit but off to the track within 30 minutes. Today we debut our 2013 Draglist T-shirts... Will try to cobble together as much of a Super Crew pic as we can after the event. Having a great time but missing our pals. Have a look at the front page of the Cordova Dragway website to see Bret wrap up the day's action with an assist by yours truly. I also got to do a short promo video for the event yesterday that played for a while... Gary has a ton of photos to share, but he will upload when he gets back home. bp

Another late night/early morning, but having fun. Just finished uploading 513 David Oakes photos from Saturday. So he shot nearly 950 shots and I added another 100 plus of my own, so we did more than 1000 shots of the weekend... Didn't get a group photo yet as I got pinned down in the press room doing live updates for Facebook and putting up photos by David, me, and some by old friend Mike Garland. See draglist/dragphoto.com for all. Got to present a Wallly to a racer who has competed at Cordova for 59 years. That was an honor. Photos will be coming soon. Got to do TV with Bret to wrap up the day again. See the front page of the Cordova Dragway site before they take it down... Gary, Jeff, and I had another early, early morning breakfast with Bret and his partner MaryAnn at the Village Inn 10 miles West of the hotel. We all STARTED the meal with pie... will do T-shirt distribution and a group photo at the German Restaurant in the morning at our farewell breakfast. Time for a few hours of sleep! bp
