Strange story!
When at the Hot Rod Nationals this past week, after qualifying. I went to the tower to have a look at the ladder. No biggie right? When I scanned the list I saw,
R Barnhart
GTOSS
A/SS
Well I says to myself, this is not my number and this is not my Class! I should have been ,
R Barnhart
2011
F/SS
I went into the track office and asked the man, could there be a problem? He said thank's for bringing that up and he would correct it. Ok fine. Rode the Mini bike back to the pits and stopped at Denny Ford's trailer. Bomar was there and I told him of the problem with the ladder. Bo say's, No, there's nothing wrong with the ladder there are two R Barnhart's on there!
Back to the tower I go. When I got there the track official I had talked to was looking at the ladder. I told him , "Not so fast" there is a snafu here somewhere! Back into the office. He get's the Tech cards out and goes through them one at a time untill he come's to mine. He pulles my card out and continues to go through the cards. Low and behold, he pulles out another tech card signed,,,,,,,,,,,R Barnhart,,,,,,,,,,:eek: I'll be darned if there wasn't another R Barnhart running in N/SS that day
Go figure? The guy was from WV. running a 1970 GTO, hence the GTOSS number! I didn't get to meet him and do not see a 1970 GTO in the pictures. Did anyone meet this guy? I'm going to try and look him up.
Isn't that strange
