The Racing Community Loses One Of The Good Ones....

From PSCA Racer Jimmy Mock "We lost one of our own yesterday to an unfortunate accident. Perry and I had become friends over the last 3 years through a mutual love of 51 Chevy race cars. He had recently been improving the performance of his race car and was extremely excited to be a part of this years Street Car Super Nationals. R.I.P. Good Friend!" Perry raced his '51 Blown Chevy in the West Coast Pro Mod Association..
 

Rebecca Boone Associated Press
BOISE - A helicopter chartered by a state wildlife agency plunged into a travel trailer and crashed Tuesday on a downtown street in he small Idaho town of Kamiah, killing two biologists and the pilot.

Officials suspect mechanical failure caused the aircraft to flip over before it plummeted from the sky just a block from Main Street. Debris was scattered along several blocks, but no one on the ground was injured.

Witness Jim Emmert saw the crash from his house. "I saw white parts coming off of it," Emmert said of the helicopter. "It made a crumpled sound - like paper being crumpled - and then a loud crash and an explosion. And then nothing."

The Fish and Game biologists on board were identified as Larry Barrett, 47, and Danielle Schiff, 34. The pilot was Perry J. Krinitt, 43, of Belgrade, Mont.

The Department of Fish and Game had chartered the aircraft from Clarkston-based Leading Edge Aviation to count salmon spawning nests on the Selway River.

The National Transportation Safety Board and Lewis County Sheriff's Office were investigating the crash.

It's Official..... Gliddens' To Match Race Cobra Jet's In Vegas

PSCA & SCSN President Mel Roth announces today that Ford Racing icons Bob and Bill Glidden, will battle each other in a best 2 out of 3 grudge race at the Street Car Super Nationals IV November 20-23, 2008 at the Strip in Las Vegas. Both Glidden's will be in Limited Production Ford Racing "Cobra Jet" Mustangs and the gloves will be off between these two Ford Racing legends!!!

 

  Roth states "We knew there was a chance with both Glidden's being here racing in the Accufab Outlaw 10.5 class that they might line up against each other during the weekend, but now there's a new twist as both father & son will be in equally matched hot rods and the best Glidden will prevail".

 

  Jim D'Amore from JDM Engineering brought up the idea and Jesse Kershaw from Ford Motorsports made it happen with (2) 2008 Ford factory built race Mustangs we knew it would be a crowd pleaser. Bob and Bill will also be signing both cars as many other Ford Racing Legends will be doing in the weeks prior. Round 1 of the epic battle will take place on Saturday at high noon, with Rounds 2 & 3 (If necessary) taking place on Sunday with the times TBA.
