Hey Condor, If you need a fire suite or any other sftey equip. Call Tom over at On Track Motorsport Supply, his number is: 805-484-3435 He's outfitted Bobby Green with his Fire suit, and is a realll good guy, Tell him Mike told you to call him and he'll treat ya' good.
Hey congrats man!!! We were all cheering you on from here. Guess it was only a matter of time before you hit the big one - man, that's gotta be sweet! Biggest HR field ever, at the 50th annual...It's poetic justice that the hometown boy won. Savor it... Hey Shag - don't you think the Gosson Bros distributor had a lot to do with your success? Scotty
Some action: Gotta love big smokey burnouts. The awesome Winged Express! On the green light. Next year, I gotta get closer to the action. Taking pictures from the stands or the fence just isn't as cool.
Thanks everybody! Right now, I have about 5,000 bucks in bills to pay before I can go further. After I'm caught up I'll be looking for a fire suit and a snout starter set-up. We'll be push starting when we run, but ya gotta have a starter for firing in the pits these days. The car's ready except for a magneto with at least 9 amps. That little Vertex is fine for start up, but I can't chance running hard with it. Tom Cirello has a sweet set-up but I need to get him a Mallory Super Mag III,IV or V generator body and 1,400 bucks. I've got new slicks and liners too thanks to Pete Jensen, but the list goes on...I think I have to register with Home Land Security for the privilege of paying 25 bucks a gallon for nitro too...MONEYMONEYMONEYMONEY! Waaaaaaa!
I had to stay away from that black chevy for sale. It was calling me!I can't even look at the picture.
Hey D- Johnny is right!! It's really me!! I'm the Hamber!!! Had a great time visiting with you on Saturday night. Got to do it more often!! Hope you had a safe trip home!! K-
Hey Johnny, Poor Mike!! So glad you could make it out all the way from Mississippi for the March meet!!! We had a great time! Got the count down goin'! 14 months or less!!! Talk to you soon! K-
Conder- Simply beautiful. Bet it was nice to haul Satan with your old reliable wagon. Station wagons, blown fuelers and California go together like penut butter and jelly. I bet this is what you looked like behind the wheel on the way down there, . Glad you made it. Oh and Church Magazine as a sponsor! How fitting!! Brian
Thanks Jimmy, I was looking for you all weekend but never saw you. I agree the Keystones really look good on the car. Scotty, I would totally give credit to your dizzy if it was in the car but alas it is not. Still in the box you sent it to me in. I hope you got some use out of that Vertex Mag I traded you. When you coming down here again? Tim saw your dragster, wow!
Hey Conder, I took a picture of your wagon, but I didn't know it was yours. Car looked great, and so did your digger. My 63 Merc has the same front bumper as your wagon.
Thanks man, that poor ol' Ford has seen some MILES! She pulled the rail just fine, but that aluminum jack I had inside with me nearly drove me insane....CLICKaclackCLAAACKclickcaclackclackclackCLACKCLACK etc etc for nearly 16 hours of driving. I'm inventing a rubber pit jack. Those Merc wagons are wicked, are there pictures of it on here somewhere? Thanks Brian, if you were working with me the last couple weeks we probably could've made it down there on thursday. With a 'chute tail. And maybe a camera.
I'm a trucker, so of course I noticed this old long nosed Pete. The driver said this was it's first time out. It's chopped and all smoothed, even the frame and tanks. It had a dropped front axel with reverse arched springs and air bags on top of them. I resized this to be smaller, but it isn't
I took my wife and daughters (10 & 13 years old) on Saturday, now there all bugging me for purses from Trophygirl !!! What a great day. Thanks go out to all the drivers for putting on an awesome show!
tell me about it...265 dollars later my wife has the gold glitter purse and wallet. Last year she got a wallet and told me next year she would be buying a purse too. I asked her if she would upholster my car. she said her helper (other girl there) could do it no prob as she can do all that stuff. I would so do it. Her work is killer.
