2009 NHRA Northwest Nationals

Day 4 Sunday the Finals,
"the Shimy Shimy"

So we were walking around getting some photo ops with some people and managed to get pics with Graham Light, Rick Stewart and some people with the Safety Safari.
But what beauty day for for racing! Not as cool as I had hope for but still cooler. Had to wear my jeans as I got burnt the day before. In the morning we went to the set of NHRA today and hung around with MIke Dunn and Larry Dixon. It was a good day at the races and my wife invented a new racing term and Jeg Coughlin is pictured here showing it.










The "Shimy Shimy" she called it when a driver gets a little "slideways bothways". Jeggy perfected it here. Was close to rolling over.

We always have a good time in the bar after the races and here are some other Canadians we have met there in the last 3 years who always end up in there as well. It truly is a cool little bar to go hang out at and they make really good drinks to.

So a special thanks goes out to the special friends we have met in Meeker Street bar and grill and to the staff for putting up with our Canadian ways.
