    Jim- You hit the nail directly on the head! pre-1972 already excludes people. Making tech harder to pass for a 1/4mi would further exclude people. We wanted to see everybody get on the track.....even those who normally wouldn't be able to pass tech in most situations.

    Again, we thank everybody for coming out, and hope everybody spreads the word for Hell on Wheels this coming September 19 and the Thaw Out for next year.

    PS- I saw lots of cameras..... how about some pictures?

    I think you are right. The Delta 88 was in at least another inch in its original config. I could tell by the wear lines after I put it on. All will be well if I dont try to tear it up. For the street it has been fine for about 8 or 9 years but under racing load as you can see it does not work.

    This would be a perfect place for a eastern Hamb drags. 1/8 track for our old cars. Nice small track with the availablity of camping. Close enough to draw the people from the east and south. Was planning to go but due to the weather forcast ended up working in the garage all day Saturday. I plan to make this show in the upcoming springs in the future. Keep the shows coming this will become big in the future.

    I woke up to the Hussy starting at 6:30 Sunday morning, on a wet tent floor with a hangover. Talk about a WTF moment.

    ive been to every event the columbus devils have put on so far. and by far the pacemakers local is my favorite.in time this could be THE event of spring for miles around
    just being at this track makes you feel like you hit a time warp and its 1969 again.
    all that was missing was jungle pam and her big .......personality....hahahah
    Pat,Jon,thumper and the rest of the devels thanks for a cool event
    hopefully you can plan to come to the POOR MANS NATIONALS in plain city ohio in august

    Shit, no problem. I got to lay back down, you had the balls to drive the thing home. Besides, there's worse things to wake up to for sure.

    Glad so many liked it. The only thing that could make our events better is more people....so we would love some extra support for our next show. Your bumping, comments, compliments, and word of mouth is what gets more people to our events.

    We can start now and make sure that everybody hears about Hell On Wheels in September. Check the link:

    http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=340146

    Our shows are not about bands, not about rockabilly, not about scenesters.... they are about vintage cars and trucks and running the piss out of them......period! We want to attract the die-hard car guys and gals and give them the opportunity to see what their machines will do.

    Please help us with spreading our gospel and hopefully these shows will continue to snowball into premier events in the midwest.

    Thanks again for the support.
