The History of the MRA

[Vanmar Racing]

Hey Everyone!

I have decided to undertake the task of documenting the history of the MRA. (I may be crazy.)

Part of this project will entail scanning all available MRA Programs.

I have 22 programs but am also missing some years and am asking all Mra members (current and former) to help me find the missing years.

I have the years 1985 through 2009 EXCEPT

I Need:

1987
1994
2003
2006

I also need all years older than 1985 ( Thanks to Chuck Lee for 1985)

I would also like to collect any memories members wish to write down about the MRA . Also any pictures that members have that are noteworthy.

If you can help me out please contact me via email at vanmarracing@mindspring.com
or call me at 303-944-0334

Thanks!

I'll look through my stuff, I probably have some old programs. If you want to get together I can give you some good stories of the early MRA

Looking at that cover from 03-04, have they change the configuration of what is now 6 & 7 at pueblo since then?

This should be interesting winter reading for a noob like me.

It's a long story

can someone tell me the Story of how/why Bobby miosek had his trailer covered in maxi pads in the pits at steamboat in 97 I think 97...

?????

[Vanmar Racing]

Actually it was Shane Turpin who's trailer was covered with various femine hygiene products. And the reason why...it was his Birthday! I am not sure who did this terrible deed.

Bob Miosek went crazy at Daytona one year and put mini pads EVERYWHERE!

Of Course I tried to stop him. He bought up all the mini pads in a 2 miles radius and put them on all the racers trucks/trailers.

He was a wild man!

Peter,

It's all highly scientific and very difficult to explain, but the reality of the changes you've noticed is simply a question of who drew the track map.
