Jalopy Showdown May 20th AND 21st !!

Well here we are. I talked with the owner of the airport yesterday and we are on the schedule for Sunday May 21st... Jalopy Showdown drag racing!! Saturday the 20th will be the regular fun and monkey business at the Latimore Fairgrounds, then on to the Gettysburg Airport Sunday, about 15-20 min. away. The drag racing will be called "Show and Tell" or something of the sort by his request. We will have a special area for ALL our cars seperate from the spectator parking. If you want to run on Sunday YOUR CAR MUST HAVE MADE IT ONTO THE INFIELD THE DAY BEFORE at Latimore. This will keep things real old timey looking and keep out the tuner/pro street/shiney other show car element. We will give out paper windshied stickers to infield cars to ID them for racing. It will be $10 a car load to get in, or $25 (total)for 3 tickets to run...you keep winning, you keep running past the three. Probably start around noon on Sunday. Anyone is welcome to show up and watch at $10 a car. More details as we dream them up. I'm working on some surprises for Saturday too. I'm pretty much asking this guy to run Sunday like he always runs his deal. I'm not making any money off Sunday and Saturday is still my charity deal. If Sunday would flop and only 20 or 30 people show up, he may let anyone run to make up for it, so I hope everyone hangs for the extra day. Thanks to everyone for the support and thanks to Ryan and the HAMB for helping to make the show better than I ever thought it could be!

 

Looks like I just had a fire lit under my but to finish a Crosley.
Thanks for all you do Larry.

 

Excellent...... any rules for sunday as far as tech?

 

.............so..........I guess we pray for rain for Saturday and for sun on Sunday??

 

Haaa-haaa, not likely too many. I'll check soon though. We will have to clear the runway if a plane wants to land!

 

what is the situation as far as camping goes..
Would like to know as a bunch of us from the Pittsburgh Drifters are going to try and make it out....

 

Camping is no problem on the grounds. It is a little, ahh, rustic. As long as nobody raises hell late at night and pisses off the neighbors directly across the street (or me), camping will always be free. It is real easy, dont be a stupid*** and the show will never have any problems. Well, O.K. we have plenty of stupid***es there already. Dont be a loud, stupid*** late at night!

 

Be a Douchebag(tm). Quiet. clean. And safe.

Hello,my name is Lulabelle.......and I'm a stupid***.And excited!Yeah an excited stupid***.

 

and i drink 'Rolling Rock' and I F@CKING HATE WORKING ON CARS!

 

bttt

 

Larry is my hero I can't wait. I going to practice my burnout right now. I think I know where some fresh blacktop is.

 

........I don't have to practice.....I IS one!........

 

How rustic are we talking? Are there facilaties or am I going to be competeing with a bear for facilaties..... I've been to some really nasty campgrounds, thats the only place that they held scooter rallies out east.....

But if the camping is free thats cool,

 

When the museum is open, you can pee in air conditioned comfort, other wise it is the spot-o-pot. No real electric hook ups or anything like that.

 

free camping sounds good.....as long as most of the guys are straight...Petejoe has to stay in his own tent!! no more late night visits, buddy!!!

and for the dude formerly known as kustomkoupe (kind of like prince changing his name), now known as suresomething. hahaha I think we may have our own version of pinks.......he'd better get that flatty warmed up when I bring out the nitro carbs!

 

I'm there again......... in Big Olds this time.

 

if all goes as planned, ill be there with all my fellow south jersey boneheads.

 

Larry,How about a surpize for sunday.I vote for Linda Vaughn as flagger.

 

that does make for interesting wishes...

I say sun both days, the track can always be watered down....

 

No it should read.. Hello my name is Lulabelle and I am a Douchebag..


Look forward to seeing everyone again

 

See you all there!
I'll have to roll in a grease-pit in my just-ordered HAMB t-shirt so I don't look like a "nubie-gold-chainer-wanna-be".
