at Canfield, Ohio for Hot Rod Supernats..........she placed 3rd in the contest

Some History - Ann worked three jobs so she could buy an AMX. She saved every cent for months

so when a car came along, she would have the dough to buy it. We looked for months, most of the cars

we looked at were decent, but just not what she was looking for. It ended up we found this car just

4 miles from our house. When she bought the car it had a lot of high performance parts

After a bunch of tuning (and learning) we got it to run a best of 11.71. That was the first year, 2001.
