    I am going. The street cars can bracket race with no trailered cars racing. The race cars can grudge race if you can pair up 2 cars that can stay in their lane. I have been working on the studebaker because traction will be a problem. This will be worth going to just to see all the old racers from the Houston vicinity and Bobby Leebrams old blown gas car.

    Sorry Marc they threw me to the Wolves (purpose built racecars). Didn't really understand that I have plates. You can all have a shot in Navasota except Skully, he's too FAST!!!

    You have to have priorities Bill. Sunday tea with Andy first (You know how those British chaps are.) Maybe after that we can find some time to show you the tail lights.

    AND the more time you spend on the HAMB is less time on the Thames. I want to see that thing on the rear bumper at Yellow Belly.

    Navasota is Not being televised! If you want to see the Austin Bad Boys run you need to be there.

    I plan on being there and only been to Navasota a couple of trips since the new owners have had the track. I tecked there for 8 plus years and did many other jobs there and know the track well. Its a fun place and use to be Family friendly and hope its still the same way.

    Think we got it worked out. If everything checks out on the motor tonight, I'll be there with the truck. I need to get a race with my buddy Rick and some other guy that claims he's pro eliminator.

    This should be a televised event. I heard there's some guy with a flat head whoop'n up on the Austin crowd.

    Hey Skots consider it done ! I need a SKOTS FLATHEAD sticker for the tow vehicle lol
    See ya all on SUNDAY,SUNDAY,SUNDAY
    And Mark you know it don,t have no stinking bumper lol
     
  27. I feel certain you will have some good old side by side nostalgia trucks that can stay in their respective lanes.
    Even if we can;t run with the little dogs we have just a bunch of fun and promise to put on a good show for the crowd. Traction? Whats that?:D LOL
    And dont forget the little FED flatty thats gonna show.
    Just some good ole boys, never meaning no harm.:D
    Even the Sunday driver occasionally crosses the line if he or she is truly racing.
     
  28. I think ESPN will be there along with J Force in tow to get some tips from the infamous pro eliminator.:cool:
    You guys, you guys. I 'll use the 1/8 mile to bring you up to the trough. The 1/4 mile bleeding will start soon.
    Aint it fun. And yes Mark, I am sure the Hill Rat will be happy to line up beside you, just stay in your lane cause I can't stay in mine.LOL :)

    Everything looks good and I have the thumbs up from the crew chief for Sunday. Maybe I can get the pro eliminator to give me some tips before getting on the track with you. I'm looking for every possible advantage I can get here. Will giving you the finger on the line have the same effect that it has on Doc?
