Hi, I'm Don from Brookfield, Wisconsin. I won my first modeling contest at the age of 14. Been competing with 1:1 and models ever since. I currently crew on a MG-B, Formula Ford, and help with a LSR MG Midget. I was the Projects Administrator for Brian's Model Cars, which shut down in 2012. I am currently the Southern Fryed Drag Racing commissioner on another site. I also cast some resin bodies. Glad to be here.

Hey Don..
I think it should have been the same as here : 60s era.
Or it might possibly have been: stillin2cars.. Been quite a while, don't remember for sure..

September has been a very exciting month for me. On the 7th the MG-B that I was crewing for, at Watkins Glen, took 3rd in the most important and largest MG race of the year.
That same day, at Bonneville, the MG Midget, that I had helped with, set a world record for the I/GT class at 122.539mph.
On the 18th I passed the test for my Master Judge certification with the Kansas City Barbecue Society.
On the 19th I had knee surgery.
On the 29th I finished my first model for 2014.
And finally on the 30th I took my first hour long power walk since my surgery, thereby declaring my knee healed.
Good month indeed.

Congratulation x6. All great news man. I'd love to see that record setting midget car.
Well I think you ended up in a great place this month. Great to have you. Hope see more of your projects and see you share your tips and knowledge with others.

I should have listed joining Jerrys Cherrys on the 10th. This is Chris Conrad and his Milwaukee Midget. I/GT is for 1,00cc (61cu in)stock bodied cars. He had a one way of 126+mph and a two way average of 122.539mph.  |
