Since there seems to be a following of Butch and the Blazer from hell I thought I would share an update I received this morning.

Butch now has a Craftsman Truck Series chassis and is sporting a 433 cubic-inch V8 running in the neighborhood of 650 ponies. The Blazer is also running once again.

He'll be joining us for our April autocross so I'll have photos and video to share after then.

For those who don't know who Butch is this is his hillclimb truck

what's the date for the autocross you refer to and is it a pre-register only event? i'm assuming its at nhms too. it's been many years since i've autocrossed anywhere but the awesome runways in Ayer so i wouldnt mind a change in venue or just possibly stopping by even, especially if butch's gmc is attending. i've only seen it disappear up a hill once. i know some dont, but does your group allow ride-alongs?

We allow registration at the event but online is easier.

April 22 @ NHMS more info at sccnh.org

No ridealongs unless you're a registered driver per our insurance, which I am intimately involved in since I'm the Autox director.
