The 2010 Lake Cumberland Grand Prix launched with style on June 4, 2010 in Somerset, KY! Media were treated to pace boat rides around the race course at Waitsboro Recreation Area, and the Parade of Boats on US 27 was a huge success! The evening was capped by a high-energy performance by Devon Allman's Honeytribe at Race Village at The Center for Rural Development.

After being scattered in the lanes, a strange twist of fate had the three of us making consecutive passes at PINKS All-Out at O'Reilly Raceway Park, and Thanks to my quick thinking wife it was captured on this video. In the left lane (closest to camera) Ray Sears' Green Mustang (the Pack Mule) is the first of us in the video; Chris Pierce in his yet to be named, but beautiful 3rd gen Camaro is the 2nd car in the video and is also in the left lane and I am the last of the three to make a pass in the 'Possum (82 Camaro Z28) however, I am in the right lane (farthest from camera). We may not have been slow enough to suit the 'show', but we had a blast and represented our home track (Lake Cumberland Dragway, Jamestown KY) in fine fashion- Looking Good & Going Fast!
Our annual trip to Lake Cumberland in Kentucky.
