Comment: My favorite time to be a race fan. You
just didn't know what would happen.. My favorite car/driver
combination of all time - Al Michalchuk in his sportsman coupe. It may
look a little rough to some, but to me, it was all that mattered....
Nothing fancy. Plenty of attitude. And as cool as it looks here,
it looked even cooler in a full drift going around the square. Al
would end up winning a couple of features in this car. I'm not sure if the reflection at the bottom of the photo was a sign of things to come later on this night, but it was right around this time that Al flipped this car (either on this night, or within the following next couple of weeks) between turns 3 & 4. The car looked like a total loss, but Al rebuilt it and came back the following week to take the feature event win. |

If I am not mistaken, The coupe with the checkerboard roof is the Joe Ramm (Jim's dad) 01. |
