In memory of Roy Parker we would like to republish one of his past newsletters he wrote for the NVRA back in 2007...

What a season!
Here are a few facts about the NVRA in 2007:
• At last count, our membership included 96 members from seven states.
• We had 14 shows scheduled and got to run 12 of them, but due to a communications problem with a promoter, only 11 were point-paying shows. Two second dates were cancelled by the promoters. The one rainout we had (at Peach State) was made up later in the season.
• And if I counted correctly, I think that we had a total of 53 cars run with us this season. We averaged 29.4 cars per show for the 11 point-paying shows that we ran. In April, we had 29 cars in the Peach State pits when the rains fell, and 30 returned when we ran the make-up show in September – including our buddy Phil Barkins who pulled all the way down from Dover, Delaware again to run with us. Congratulations to every car owner and crew member who made all that possible. Ladies and gentlemen, those are some impressive numbers!
