B.C. Supershifters 2018 Race at Pacific Raceways

We were looking forward to this big race with a great group of guys only to have Mother Nature rule the weekend.

We went out early Saturday despite a bleak weather forecast and never got a pass that day. At about 11:30 AM the heavens opened and ended the day. We towed the ’57 home because of the equally bad Sunday forecast and got up early to check the weather and decided not to go. The guys did get one qualifying hit on Sunday, dialed-in and were in the staging lanes for their 1st round of eliminations when rain struck again and ended the weekend.

 

As close as we got to making a run on Saturday before the rain came!
We were flying both the U.S. & Canadian Maple Leaf for our friends from up north

 

Our thanks to all the teams that came down from British Columbia and from eastern Washington to have some fun. Despite the weather, it was great seeing our friends! Perhaps next year we’ll get sunshine!

We’ll leave you with some video from the 2016 & 2017 races! – Roger & Pam Young
